I am still negotiating a large (520)stall parking lot. The customer wants the best, most durable paint that one can use within reason. I have read on this forum that Alikyd is good, and that some use a 50-50 mix of CR and Alkyd,but only when compatible. The lot is asphalt, and I suggested he get a second opinion on resurfacing. It looks like he is not going to do that. What is the best paint for such a job, if sprayed on with a Graco 3400? by the way,The Graco purchase is contingent upon getting this project.

If you can get it in your area I would use S/W chlorinated Rubber hands down. If you have to paint over sealcoat then don't use the white it can bleed thru. and brown

SW chlorinated rubber is good. If you want the best, Technical Coatings Supreme. It starts off and stays brighter than any other paint I have ever used. The trouble with most long lasting paints is that they tend to attract and hold dust and dirt. Supreme is harder and smoother than other paints and doesn't pick up dirt like they do. Call Wayne at [phone removed]. They are in Atlanta area. I don't use Supreme often because of the additional cost, but in special situations, it's worth it.

Product numbers are; 0.0TM5127 for yellow and 0.0TM5126 for white Setfast C/R should be around $10.00 per gal Works great with the airless. Best tips 317 light film to a 421 with L/D , 215 for stencils Use mineral spirits for general clean up and acetone for a good flush

My novice-ness is really showing up.( nervous cough) Forgot to mention it is mostly a re-paint. Does all info above still apply?
