Dew Can Form on the Surface Mid-Session — Monitor Surface Temperature Relative to Dew Point
We were marking a large external carpark at the Carrum Downs Business Park during an overnight session in autumn. Air temperature was around 12°C when we started — surface temperature 10°C, fine for thermoplastic application. At around 3am, as air temperature dropped to 7°C, the asphalt surface temperature dropped to below the dew point. Dew condensed on the cool surface ahead of the marking machine, and we applied thermoplastic over the dew-wet surface in several sections before we noticed the sheen.
Thermoplastic applied over surface moisture doesn't bond to the substrate — the water acts as a release layer between the thermoplastic and the asphalt. Those sections lifted within two months. Not all sections were affected — the sections we marked before the dew formed were fine.
Surface temperature relative to dew point is a critical check during overnight autumn and winter marking sessions in Melbourne. Air temperature dropping below the dew point causes condensation on cool surfaces even when no rain is forecast. We now check surface temperature and dew point every 30-45 minutes during extended overnight sessions in the April-September window, and stop application immediately if surface temperature approaches within 2°C of the dew point.
Carrum Downs is the Carrum Downs Business Park and the Frankston City industrial corridor — growing logistics, trade, and light manufacturing on the EastLink and Frankston-Dandenong Road approaches. VicRoads approved. Dew point monitoring is standard protocol on every Carrum Downs and Melbourne autumn-winter overnight external marking session.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Carrum Downs Business Park and Frankston City industrial corridor are part of our south-east Melbourne schedule. Dew point monitoring during April-September overnight external sessions — application stopped if surface temperature approaches dew point. We've completed 5,000+ projects nationally since 2009 and carry $20M public liability insurance. Every Carrum Downs quote includes a site assessment, surface condition report, and fixed pricing. No estimates that change at invoicing. For WorkSafe Victoria improvement notices we can typically assess within 24 hours and deploy within 48-72 hours. Completion comes with photo documentation, a compliance statement, and material specifications. VicRoads approved for any road or carpark marking that requires local council or state road authority sign-off.
Dew point is the air temperature at which atmospheric moisture condenses on surfaces. When the surface temperature of asphalt drops to or below the dew point — which can happen in clear, still autumn nights even without rain — a thin film of water condenses on the surface. Thermoplastic applied over this moisture film can't bond to the asphalt below the moisture layer.
We use a digital psychrometer that measures both air temperature and relative humidity, from which we calculate the dew point. Surface temperature is measured with an infrared thermometer. Every 30-45 minutes during April-September sessions, we record both values. If surface temperature is within 2°C of the dew point, we pause and wait for conditions to change. We schedule around your operational hours because downtime costs more than the marking job. Most Carrum Downs facilities run Sunday nights or after-hours weekday windows. We provide a detailed session plan before arrival, work in sections to maintain partial access throughout, and have the area clear before your first shift starts. For time-critical jobs, call Niel directly on 0417 460 236.
Stop application immediately on the sections ahead of the dew formation. Allow the dew to evaporate — which usually happens within 30-60 minutes as the sun rises or as wind picks up. Inspect sections marked before dew was detected for any adhesion issues. Resume once surface is confirmed dry. If the dew persists until daylight prevents continuation, we reschedule the remaining sections.
VicRoads approved since 2009. Approval means we meet the contractor qualification, insurance, and technical standards required to work on state roads and local government road networks.
