   Is there another way to paint hazard lines than using aerosol cans? I'm trying to save $ and number of times I have to reapply the paint. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

   Kim,
   We just recently switched to another paint source and found the paint is darker, brighter and hang around 10-14days longer. May be something worth looking into.

   Why not use stakes ? Past the initial expense, all is needed is monitoring their placement and occasional coat of paint.

   We use stakes and paint. Too many issues of a "straight line" between stakes, in or out and it's a small expense to paint 2x a month.

   Stakes define, lines mark.
   
   The paint doesn't last because what you are applying on is growing and getting cut. I've seen sports fields apply a small strip of either round-up or Embark, then paint. Allows the paint to last longer.

   It is a lot of work isn't it. Hazards look nice though when staked and marked. If you think hazards are tough try turf plots! We use a backpack sprayer with a homemade pinpoint nozzle and keep the pressure low. You guys have all seen the way plots are laid out. Always wanted to try it on a golf course. Kenneth Ingram, UMD
