Roadway design
Filling and sanding:
Create a smooth roadway and fill
any gaps and uneven areas with Filler (Art. 180500). The
street sections form a perfect joint for the filling paste.
Once cured grind the surface with fine grit sandpaper or a
scraper so the contact wire still shows through in all areas.
Street markings:
The outside street boundaries can be
painted on with a white touch-up pen and, depending on
the street route, a straight ruler or curve template. The cen-
tre line is available as a rub-on with the item »Street mark-
ings«. First mark the centre line using a ruler and pencil,
cut strips from the sheet, affix them on the centre line
marking using two fingers, and use the included stylus to
rub them onto the street.
Line the kerbside with guide posts and secure
curves with crash barriers. The kerbside can easi-
ly be created with a little filler and some spread-
ing material. Set up traffic signs and design
additional, non-functional streets and areas using
various self-adhesive films from our design line.
Create the perfect illusion of mobility.
Finishing and decorating
Add a final touch to your street before traffic starts moving permanently.
Pavement:
The asphalt can be added quickly and evenly
with the Roadway Paint (Art. 180506) and a narrow paint
roller or a brush. Once dried the non-slip surface texture
provides a perfect grip for the tyres on your Car System ve-
hicles.
Shoulder and signs:
Use an awl to pierce the required
holes for inserting the guide posts and crash barriers, then
secure the parts with adhesive. The set of traffic signs in-
cludes the matching signs by era. Secure in the same man-
ner as the safety equipment.
