Immediately after warming the thermoplastic to its ideal application temperature (when it has started to turn into a fluid state), this is when glass bead should be sprinkled as evenly as possible over the line.Although the application guidance is a relatively small 250 grams per square metre, with line markings it is advised to allow much more than this as a significant amount won't fall on the marking when sprinkling.
