They require a hammer and chisel for removal. When fully cured the adhesive supplied forms a permanent bond between the marker and application surface. We have test samples in place with no loss of adhesion after more than 15 years. We also have test samples on roadways, purposely placed in the tyre path, that are still in place after more than 8 years. Our adhesives have been tested and used under a wide variety of conditions since 1983 and offer the perfect combination of long term durability and ease of use.
