ONE PITCH, MORE SPORTS

A youth match in the morning, training in the afternoon and another sport the next day. When one pitch serves several teams, clear markings make all the difference.

Ready Color gives each layout its own color, so players and officials can see the lines that matter to them. And when a white line is no longer needed, GrassGreen covers it. More flexibility on the grass you already have.

More possibilities on the same pitch
You do not always have space for another pitch. With colored markings, you can give different sports and age groups room on the same natural grass surface. Each layout has its own color, so players and officials can follow the right lines. Ready Color helps you make better use of your pitch without adding mixing to your marking routine.
Specifications

Product type: Line marking paint, water-based, ready-to-use

Colors: Blue, red, green, yellow, black and GrassGreen

Pack size: 10-litre (r)HDPE container, 100% recyclable

Density: 1.21 g/ml

Suitable surface: Natural grass sports pitches.

Application conditions

Machines: Selectliner, Flexliner and Easyliner, or any machine with a pump delivering at least 3 bar (45 PSI) at the nozzle.

Preparation: Shake the container thoroughly for at least 10 seconds before use. Do not dilute or add water. Install the container directly in the machine.

Nozzle type: our advice, based on what the line has to do:

  • White nozzle, 0.22 L/min, for initial marking
  • Red nozzle, 0.14 L/min, for overmarking
  • Purple nozzle, 0.35 L/min, for a stadium finish

Conditions: Apply to dry, freshly mown natural grass at temperatures above 5°C. Do not apply immediately after rain or while the grass is wet from rain or dew. Avoid rainfall, frost, strong winds and intense direct sunlight during application. Ideally, allow several dry, rain-free hours after marking.

Drying time: Approximately 30 minutes under recommended conditions. Lower temperatures or damp conditions may extend the drying time.

Final whiteness and consumption: Both depend on nozzle selection, flow rate and marking speed.

Cleaning and storage

Cleaning: Clean the marking equipment immediately after use with clean water or Selectline Cleaner. Rinse the hoses, filters and nozzle thoroughly to prevent clogging.

Storage: Keep the container tightly sealed and store between 5°C and 30°C in a dry place. Protect from frost and direct sunlight.

Shelf life: 9 months unopened. Once opened, reseal the container tightly and store under the recommended conditions.

Safety: Water-based and non-flammable. Consult the safety data sheet before use.

Frequently asked questions

Which Ready Color colors are available, and when do I use each?

Ready Color covers blue, red, green, yellow, black and GrassGreen. Blue, red and yellow are normally used to separate secondary sports and training zones from the white competition lines; green and black suit temporary layouts and event markings; GrassGreen is used to overmark white lines that should no longer be visible.

How do I cover white lines that should not be visible on camera?

Overmark them with GrassGreen. Follow the existing white line at the same width, in a single pass with a slight overlap, and avoid a second coat over the same spot. Typical uses are warming-up areas, an old pitch layout after the surface has been reconfigured, and correcting a marking error before a fixture.

Can I use Ready Color for tournaments and temporary layouts?

Yes. Ready Color is water-based and stays on the grass leaf, so a temporary layout grows out as the pitch is mown, without a separate removal step. Plan a fixed sequence: mark the permanent white lines first, then the temporary colors, and note the reference points so the layout can be repeated for the next event.

Do I need a separate machine for colored paint?

No, but you do need to flush thoroughly before returning to white. Run clean water with Selectline Cleaner through the machine until the rinsing water runs clear, then clean the nozzle holder, nozzle and filter separately with undiluted Cleaner. If you mark colored layouts regularly, a second nozzle and filter set saves time and removes the risk of a tinted white line.

Is consumption the same as for white Ready Fit?

Ready Color uses the same hollow-cone nozzles and flow rates as Ready Fit: 0.14, 0.22 or 0.35 L/min at 3 bar / 45 PSI. The number of passes can differ, because colors contrast differently against green grass: yellow and green typically need a stronger application than blue or black. Consumption per pitch stays low, which together with the absent preparation step usually gives a lower seasonal cost than a colored concentrate.
