Glass Bead Gun questions
Why apply glass beads to road markings?
Beads make the marking retroreflective, so headlights bounce light back to the driver. That is what keeps lines visible at night and in poor weather.
When are the beads applied?
Onto freshly applied markings, while the thermoplastic or paint can still hold them, so they bond into the surface of the line.
How even is the bead spread?
The gun is built for accuracy and consistency, giving a uniform distribution across the line for reliable reflectivity along its whole length.
Does it work with my marking system?
It is compatible with various road marking systems. Tell us what material and bead size you use and we will confirm the configuration.
