Cold weather applications extend the marking season and with the long life cycle of Color-Safe, Transpo says transportation officials look at Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) as the optimal material for special use lane marking for both concrete and asphalt surfaces. MMA symbols and striping develop a strong bond to existing MMA, and are capable of full cure down to 40°F, making Color-Safe a viable alternative to thermoplastic markings.
