Tru Mark Athletic Field Marker introduced a bulk liquid chalk temporary field lining solution for synthetic turf fields that does not require a special removal agent.

While Tru Mark offers an aerosol chalk solution customers were looking for an airless sprayer application product that was only temporary without the need for any cleaning agents.

SwitchBack Liquid Chalk field marking material is formulated without the typical acrylic latex resins and performs like traditional field marking chalk used on baseball and softball diamonds. Once the product is applied and dries it will hold up similar to marble dust or calcium carbonate on a skinned area of a diamond. The product can be easily removed with an abrasive action such as scuffing your shoes over the line and then rinsing with water to remove any shadow effects. The product will naturally dissolve over time from traffic, rain and irrigation methods.

Liquid Chalk is sold in 5-gallon pails and is diluted on a ratio of 1:1 with water, for every gallon of liquid chalk you add a gallon of water. The product can be applied without dilution but will require an airless pump that can product at least 900 psi at the pump.

The reference photo album reflects the demonstration of the the product on three different synthetic turf surfaces. The Liquid Chalk was applied after a 1:1 dilution ratio, allowed to dry for 1 hour which it was dry to the touch, then removed with a shoe scuffing operation and then rinsed with water over the scuffed area.

This product has many of the same characteristics of Tempura which is used in the art industry.
