Default Line marking paint

The Medway Handyman said the following on 27/07/2010 19:57:
Plenty of places sell the aerosol cans of line marking paint - the stuff
used for car park bays, but nobody seems to be able to say how far a can
goes?

I've got to mark out 5 bays, figured on 4" wide lines on 3 sides.

No idea if I need 1 can, 5 cans, 10 cans?

Anyone have any experience of using this stuff?



Not a direct answer to your Q. But at work our local handyman ;-) has
been using a tape that he heats onto the tarmac. Unfortunately I can't
find it in Google for you and I am trying to remember if he uses a hot
iron (square piece of metal not what you might use on your clothes) to
stick it or flame or both.

If it helps a little.
