Chicago striping specifications are dictated by two local realities most national vendors ignore. First, climate: Severe lake-effect freeze-thaw plus heavy salt treatment — pavement stress is year-round. Second, subgrade: Lakeshore fills and glacial clay — subgrade prep and subbase drainage are critical. Paint striping requires 50°F+ and dry 24-hour window — thermoplastic works in broader conditions. Typical performance in Chicago: 2-4 years for paint, 5-8 years for thermoplastic. Wins Parking writes these conditions into the scope before a single crew mobilizes, which is why Chicago assets we touch outlast lots built to generic out-of-region specs.
