Interesting seeing how this is done in other countries, I do this kind of work here in America, for bike lanes and bike boxes we use what is called pre form. It is hardened thermoplastic that comes in different pieces. And you pretty much piece it together like a puzzle and burn it on to the road surface with a rose bud torch. It looks like you guys are using thermoplastic and a small dye to push it in by hand. Amazing job. Very interested in the tool you use for you glass bead application. It looks like a much more efficient way of covering the material evenly and a lot easier on the wrist than the what we use here in the part of the states that I am from. What is the tool called that you distribute the beads from if you dont mind my asking?
I don't know anything about it I'm afraid, I just filmed it! But this looks like it's the kind of tool they used for the glass beads. meonuk.com/products/meon-bead-dispenser-hand-activated?variant=33046472720489¤cy=GBP&gclid=CjwKCAiAouD_BRBIEiwALhJH6IyGMDWz9o-K6frcc2kY1GrzxmxlysjXDul8egjiKAy_XZg-pTgcIRoC_fMQAvD_BwE
I use a jug with a sealed top,that has small holes in for the glass. Check out my freehand Road markings video , I don't require a 2nd man to put straight edges down. Although to be fair the bike in this video is painted on anti skid which isn't a nice surface to paint on .
The most important member of the team is the man supervising in the top left of the frame. It takes years of experience to be able to look so nonchalant while playing such a crucial role.
