Explore our selection of Marking Paint and Tape for identifying underground utilities and flagging caution areas on the job site. Whether you prefer to mark utilities with paint or flag excavation areas with tape, we have the materials you need to get the job done.
Marking Utilities and Flagging Construction Areas

If you are marking an area for construction work, pick a color (like our white or pink fluorescent paint) that doesn’t represent an underground pipe or utility line.
