The product, in perspective.
Thermoline is a powder-form road-marking material containing resin, aggregate, pigment and glass beads. It is a hot-melt system, not a liquid marking paint; specify the required colour and application equipment.
A thermoplastic hot-melt material for a specified road-marking system. This is not a conventional brush-applied decorative paint. The marking specification and application equipment should be established before ordering.
Where it works.
The documented surface or use for Thermoline Retroreflective Hot Melt is suitable road-marking surfaces. Identify the actual material and its condition before selecting the preparation and finishing system. An existing coating, a newly prepared base and a repaired area can need different treatment.
- A thermoplastic hot-melt material for a specified road-marking system.
- Available quotation packs and component requirements are checked for your selected product, rather than inferred from another grade.
Before you start.
Clean and dry the road, repair defects and remove deposits from older markings where required. New cured bitumen and aged asphalt or concrete have different preparation and primer routes.
For a useful specification check, share whether the surface is bare or previously treated, the name of the existing coating if known, and any visible damage or moisture exposure. Preparation products should be selected for that condition before the finishing material is applied.
Application and project planning.
Use the hot-melt application equipment, primer arrangement and film thickness required by the Thermoline system.
This is not a conventional brush-applied decorative paint. The marking specification and application equipment should be established before ordering.
Quantity planning starts with the installation: surface area or joint dimensions, the specified system build, and the number of application stages. Include corners, junctions, penetrations or other details relevant to the job. The sales team can check the material list against the project requirements; application must follow the manufacturer’s current instructions.

Good questions, useful answers.
Does the road need a primer?
That depends on the substrate and its condition. The sheet distinguishes new cured bitumen from aged asphalt or concrete.
What should I include in my quotation?
Give the exact product name, requested pack size, quantity and relevant colour reference. Add the surface, application and destination so the product and delivery requirements can be checked together.
How do I choose the right pack and quantity?
Use the available pack choices and the quantity required by your coating or installation plan. Tell us the area, number of coats or relevant joint dimensions if you need help assembling a material list.
Can I confirm a colour from the product picture?
The image represents product packaging, not an exact shade match. Use a manufacturer colour reference for a coloured product, or specify that colour is not applicable for the material you need.
Keep the specification close.
Use the full manufacturer technical information when planning preparation and application. Include the exact product and system details when contacting KariVex about a quotation.
