Two versions, Roadline M6 for screed and extrusion applied road markings and Nitesite, a Type 2 marking system with enhanced wet night visibility, are offered.

The cold applied MMA, which is able to cure at temperatures down to 10°C, will not soften in hot weather, and has excellent glass bead retention and complies with relevant requirements.
