Why NYC Commercial Properties Should Use Thermoplastic

New York City parking lots face conditions that destroy standard paint markings faster than nearly any other US market:

1. Snow plow operations: NYC residential and commercial lots are aggressively plowed; plow blades physically remove paint striping from the pavement surface
2. Road salt applications: NYC uses millions of tons of de-icing salt annually; chloride from salt penetrates and degrades standard traffic paint
3. High vehicle turn stress: NYC parking lots experience high vehicle count daily; tire turning stress on paint lines causes rapid wear
4. Freeze-thaw cycles: NYC experiences 25-40 freeze-thaw cycles annually; paint in pavement cracks expands and flakes

Thermoplastic markings at 8-20 per stall (vs. 3-8 for paint) cost 2-3x more upfront but last 5-10 years vs. 1-3 years for paint, making thermoplastic more cost-effective over a 10-year horizon by 30-50 percent.
