Parking Lot Striping Machine Review - The Trueline Parking Lot Paint Striping Machine by Trusco Manufacturing


The Trueline Line Striper is an easy to use and very affordable alternative to the more expensive gasoline powered paint stripers. Unlike the Graco, Kelly Creswell, Airlessco and other gasoline machines they are easy to maintain yourself with no shop fees required. The Trueline striping machines utilize a pressure tank where thinned paint is pressurized and forced into a paint box that slides along the ground. The box provides for a nice clean line even in high winds.

Trueline stripers have been around since the 60's and are great for small to medium sized parking lots. They will do commercial work but may lack some of the extra features that the more expensive machines have. For putting lines down on the ground they are great. I have personally used the Trueline machine and highly recommend it. I use a roller or separate sprayer for curbs but it has never been a problem. It is a real workhorse. If you are looking for a very economical way to stripe either your own parking lots or do some commercial work then the Trueline Paint Striper is a machine to look into.
