These paints are intended for use on concrete, bituminous, brick, or stone surfaces of airfields, highways, bridges, tunnels, streets, or parking lots when applied at a wet film thickness of 0.33 mm (0.013 inch) by means of traffic striping equipment designed for water based paints. The white and yellow paint stripes should preferably be reflectorized for night visibility by adding glass beads conforming to TT-B-1325. The black paint is intended for use as an obliterating paint, for painting out white or yellow markings to permit remarking in a different manner.

Type I - for use under normal weather conditions, i.e. 50% relative humidity, moderate temperatures and slight breezes.

Type II - for use under adverse conditions, i.e. night striping, higher humidity (around 80%), low air movement and lower surface temperatures, down to 12°C (55°F degrees Farenheit).
