Tru Mark's Trail Blazing Blog

New technology continues to help tell our story on the benefits of using bulk latex field marking paint and airless field marking equipment.

Tru Mark Athletic Field Marker recently volunteered to help stripe two discus and three shotput pits for a local high school, Norfolk Catholic High School Sports Activity Complex.

A Blackberry Curve smartphone was used to capture about 15 seconds of video coverage. A desktop tool, Free Studio Manager, was used to convert the 3GP file format and to crop the video stream.



The equipment used included a Graco FieldLazer (3 years old) without the paint shields installed, Tru Mark SwitchBack CheapSeats field marking paint diluted 1 gallon of paint to 1 gallon of water, Tru Mark Heavy Duty String Winder with 1500' of braided twine, a 300' nylon tape measure to help mark the arcs in the pits, and several stakes.

A total of 7 gallons of diluted paint was used. There were 8 arcs striped on each of the 5 pits. The boundary lines were double striped.
