AASHTO MP 24-15 (2020) PDF Download

AASHTO MP 24-15 is a standard that specifies the requirements for waterborne white and yellow traffic paints used for marking roadways. These traffic paints are designed to dry quickly and are suitable for application on both asphalt and cement concrete pavements. The paints should provide enhanced retroreflectivity and color during both daytime and nighttime conditions, which can be achieved by incorporating glass spheres or other optics into the paint.

The standard was first published as a provisional standard in 2014 and provides guidelines for the proper application of waterborne traffic paints. It emphasizes the importance of using high-quality paints that meet the specified requirements to ensure effective road markings. The standard aims to improve the visibility and durability of traffic markings, thereby enhancing safety on roadways.
