Franklin Sports Basketball Court Marking Kit

You should use a standard, outdoor-rated aerosol marking paint designed for pavement or concrete. Avoid heavy-duty industrial paints that might be difficult to remove or clean off the PVC stencils after use.

No, this kit is specifically designed for flat, hard surfaces like asphalt driveways, concrete patios, or paved courts. It will not work effectively on grass, dirt, or uneven terrain.

The longevity of the lines depends entirely on the type of paint you choose and the amount of foot traffic the area receives. Using a high-quality athletic field paint will last longer, but you should expect to touch up the lines periodically to keep them crisp.

The kit is designed to be user-friendly, but it does require some patience during the initial setup. The pieces are labeled and include a line bob to help you maintain accuracy, so take your time measuring and aligning the first few sections to ensure the entire court is square.

The kit provides the essential stencils for the key, free throw line, three-point arc, and lane markings. You will need to supply your own masking tape for straight lines and the paint itself.

If you use water-based marking paint, you can often wipe the stencils clean with a damp cloth while the paint is still wet. For oil-based paints, you may need a mild solvent, but be sure to test a small area first to ensure it doesn't damage the PVC material.
