Football Field


  Give your football field the crisp yard lines and pristine look of the pros. Whether you play on Sundays or just for fun with friends, your field can be lined professionally.

What you need:

  • Krylon Contractor Striping Paints--Water-Based - Athletic Field White (#7344) Note: Paint coverage per can: 602 linear feet (2" wide line) 301 linear feet (4" wide line)
  • Krylon Striping Equipment - (#8360)
  • Yardstick ruler
  • Tape Measure (200')

Tips

It is best to do painting with at least one other person. Use the tape measure to help make straight lines. Pull tape measure tight so there is no slack in the length. Create the outside borderlines first, and then proceed to the inner playing area lines. For best result, attempt one line at a time. Attempting to create right angles, or turns, with one continuous line may result in smearing. You can also add in lines for every yard, but finish 10-yard lines first. Customize your field with the wide variety Krylon(TM) Striping and Marking Paint colors. Reapply paint weekly for prolonged use with water-based paint and reapply as needed with solvent-based paint. Intended for use with the Krylon(TM) Striping Machines or Krylon(TM) Striping Wand.
