Line Marking Paint Consumption
With constant budget limitations, sports field managers at every level are looking for the most efficient ways to get things done. Linemark paint is one such solution, as it goes farther than other line marking paints — but only if you apply it with the right nozzles. Linemark’s cone nozzles use less paint than flat fan nozzles while still leaving bright, crisp lines on your field.
Just how efficient is the Linemark system? Below is the paint consumption, in gallons, of each of the four different nozzle sizes (colors) at three different speeds, informed by TinyMobileRobots.
Speeds
Slow: 1.64 feet/second
Medium: 2.3 feet/second
High: 3.28 feet/second
Consumption for soccer and football fields is included.

| Impact Gold Nozzle | 0.70 | 0.49 | 0.35 |
| Impact Red Nozzle | 0.96 | 0.68 | 0.48 |
| Impact Amber Nozzle | 1.20 | 0.85 | 0.60 |
| Impact Green Nozzle | 1.90 | 1.34 | 0.95 |
