Abstract/Contents:Discusses the process of line marking used at Esther Shiner Stadium in North York, Canada. Compares wet line marking with dry line marking, explaining that "wet line marking that utilzes pigment from white field marking paint and powered equipment for application is the costliest method of line marking...Dry line marking, while more economical, is less permanent and more difficult to apply accurately." Emphasizes that "the choice of field marking paint is crucial to the quality of line and subsequent turf damage that may result from the overuse of the wrong paint. The paint should be water soluble and free of chemical pigments. But it should be well mixed by the manufacturer so as to reduce the amount of on-site mixing and enhance the flow characteristics of the paint."
