Road markings are a necessary safety feature that guides drivers. For visibility in darkness, when accident risk and severity are the highest, road markings must be reflectorised with glass beads to be visible when vehicle headlights shine on them. Renewal of thick-layer structured road markings that have lost retroreflectivity but have retained the structure mostly intact is performed through application of thin-layer paint coatings. Based on a field experiment, it was demonstrated that selection of premium glass beads profoundly extends the durability of the renewed markings, which could be further enhanced through the use of high-performance waterborne paint. Whereas the standard system based on solventborne paint and typically used glass beads failed after a single winter, the use of premium road marking system at least doubled the service life. The extended road marking service life translates to 50% savings in material consumption, 50-97% lower emissions of volatile organic compounds, and a decrease in long-term financial expense by 5-26%.

Oznakowanie poziome stanowi niezbędny element wspomagający utrzymanie pojazdu z kierowcą w obrębie drogi. Ze względu na ograniczoną widzialność nocą, kiedy ryzyko oraz skutki wypadków są najwyższe, oznakowanie poziome drogi powinno być pokryte mikrokulkami szklanymi odbijającymi światło reflektorów w kierunku nadjeżdżającego pojazdu. Odnowę oznakowania grubowarstwowego strukturalnego, które utraciło właściwości odblaskowe, ale zachowało względnie nienaruszoną strukturę, przeprowadza się poprzez nałożenie materiałów cienkowarstwowych. Na podstawie badania terenowego wykazano, że wybór wysokiej jakości mikrokulek szklanych znacząco podnosi trwałość odnowionego oznakowania, a zastosowanie wysokiej jakości farby wodorozcieńczalnej dodatkowo wydłuża jego okres eksploatacji. Podczas gdy standardowy system oparty na farbie rozpuszczalnikowej i typowych mikrokulkach szklanych przestał spełniać wymagania już po jednej zimie, zastosowanie systemu oznakowania wysokiej jakości pozwoliło co najmniej podwoić okres eksploatacji. Wydłużenie okresu między odnowami oznakowania poziomego przekłada się na 50% oszczędności w zużyciu materiałów, ograniczenie emisji lotnych związków organicznych o 50-97% oraz obniżenie kosztów w długim okresie o 5-26%.
