Diamond Compass Playground Marking

This white and red compass is ideal for marking out which way is north in a playground, encouraging children to learn about the wider world around them. This diamond compass marking features 8 points indicating the four key directions, as well as sub bearings.

This marking is perfect for use alongside a world map playground marking to indicate which way is north on the map.

We have a variety of other compass markings available all of which can be found in our playground markings section. If you still cannot see the marking you need then please do not hesitate to speak to our sales team.

Key Features Of Our Thermoplastic Playground Markings

  • Exceptionally Durable - The base material is adapted from markings used on public roads so it is very hard-wearing.
  • Easy to Apply - Requires no artistic or special skill to apply, only a gas burner. Markings are supplied in pre-cut sections.
  • Vibrant Colours - Colours are vivid and will not fade or wear through.
  • Great Traction - Embedded beads enhance traction reducing slip risks.

Before Buying

  • Some of these markings are very large, please ensure you have sufficient space for the marking, full-size details are included in our specification table.
  • Most of these markings are delivered flat on a pallet, they should be stored flat until installation to avoid creasing.

Application Of Our Playground Markings

Applying our playground markings is very easy. Firstly the area must be cleaned of all loose debris, oil, grease and salts. Once this is done you are ready to get going. If your chosen surface is old tarmac, concrete or block paving then you will need to use our fast-drying primer.

Once you have fully prepped the surface the marking can be set out. Once you are happy with the marking positioning a gas burner can be used to melt the marking to the tarmac surface. For additional traction glass bead can be sprinkled over the surface, this is fused into the marking with the further application of heat.

It is important to ensure that the whole marking is melted fully to the point that it looks like cheese on toast and follows the contours of the substrate beneath. Failure to do this may mean the marking will lift. Once heated the marking cannot be re-heated as it will have oxidised and set.

Thermoplastic On Block Paving

Thermoplastic on block paving is known to be more difficult to apply and has a substantially shorter lifetime than on bituminous surfaces, such as tarmac.

Block paving is not a solid structure. Most of the time, they are put down and sand is added into the grooves, so over time when moisture creeps in as well as moss, movement can be made within 2 blocks, making the material crack and fail.
