Painting is GO!!
The weather is looking good for this weekend and hopefully the rain washed off
all the bugs we ran over at training last night.
Juju Eyeballs has found an even lower cost (& much less hassle) solution than
anything specified below - a line marker and yellow paint from Alice Equipment
Hire - and he's going to pick it up this arvo for us. So, all we need now is a
really long tape measure (at least 30m with measurements in feet. I'll bring
some rags & bucket and the track design.
I've let the Youth Centre and the roller hockey guys know that we'll be there
from 10.30am. Not sure how much cleaning of the track we'll have to do so will
check it out Saturday morning when we get there.
Donna & Axle have said they'll come along to help but any extra hands will be
appreciated!
Cheers

Hi All,
Quick update, if we want to minimise cost then the least amount of painting we
can do to have a skateable track are the inside and outside track lines and the
"pace" lines that are spaced every so often around the track. I've done some
basic calculations and I think we should be able to get away with just the 4L
of paint for $165 which means it's cheaper than spending $395 on 10L but also
means it's a solvent based paint which is a messier to deal with.
So far Breanna, Alex and Donna are available to help this Saturday 27th
November so unless there are major issues getting paint (should be able to let
everyone know tomorrow) and assuming the weather holds that will be our
painting morning.
Things we need to do beforehand:
- Purchase paint (I am happy to do tomorrow morning as Alice Paint Supplies
opens at 8am - will get yellow since that is the general consensus. If anyone
has any other ideas happy to discuss)
- Get other equipment (paint mixer, extension cord, stuff to mark out track
ie. rope, tape measure and tape, paint tray, rollers, solvent, rags, rinsing
buckets, mixing buckes - it's a two-pak paint so we should only mix up as much
as we need at a time)
- I have an extension cord, rags and one bucket I can bring that can be
used for rinsing. I'll probably get the solvent and rollers when I get the
paint but if everyone else could email if they have any of the other stuff,
particularly a paint mixer and stuff to mark out the track that would be great.
- Let the Youth Centre know and make sure no-one needs the track on
Saturday or Sunday morning, I'm happy to do that today.
On the day
- Check the weather
- Clean the track - not sure to what extent we should be doing this besides
just scrubbing it and letting dry, if anyone has a pressure cleaner or any
ideas let me know. I'll also ask the paint shop.
- get painting!
As long as all goes well with the paint then this Saturday is the day - will
send out another update later with a start time and more info.
Cheers

Thanks for researching paints 2bit!
I am really up for a track painting working bee, and I think we should go with
the cheaper paint. Not sure what colour - yellow or white? Needs to stand out...
The sooner we start skating on a proper track and building our track awareness
the better.
The end of the year is fast approaching at it is HOT but I am happy to be
involved on a weekend early in the day?
Could do weekend of 26/27 Nov or 3/4 Dec - otherwise probably not free again
til Feb!
Cheers,
Axle

Hi All,
I rang Alice Springs Paint Supplies this week and got some info about outdoor
concrete paint. They recommended a two-pack paint (comes in two separate tins
and is mixed before application) and these are available as water or solvent
based paints. They stock Dulux brand and recommend:
- Durebuild - solvent based - less durable - cheaper $165/4L, also
available in 15L tin
- Luxepoxy ECO2 - water based therefore slightly easier to use - more
durable - more expensive $395/10L
I'm not sure why they said the water based paint was more expensive since it's
actually cheaper compared to the price for the 4L tin of the solvent based type
so it doesn't seem like there's a great difference. They did indicate that
price does vary depending on the colour that's chosen and that the darker
colours can get chalkier quicker due to heat absorption over time.
Anyway, just thought I'd start the ball rolling on getting the track painted.
Other things we'll have to think about are cleaning the concrete prior to
application, curing time required and making sure it doesn't rain soon after.
Cheers
Lisa
