Yes that is how road marking are placed on roads.
Turps will do it.
A common mixture for a primer using kerosene and bitumen typically consists of about 10-20% kerosene and 80-90% bitumen. This ratio helps to reduce the viscosity of the bitumen, making it easier to apply while ensuring good adhesion to surfaces. It's important to mix thoroughly and adjust the proportions based on the specific application requirements and environmental conditions. Always follow safety guidelines when handling these materials.
It varies, for each type of paint. Sherwin-Williams still has the color in their system, they just don't have color chips to take home.
1/2 gallon the formula is 2:1
That's correct—bitumen doesn't have a single chemical formula because it's a complex mixture of high-molecular-weight hydrocarbons, along with small amounts of sulfur, nitrogen, oxygen, and trace metals. Its exact composition varies depending on the crude oil source and refining process. If anyone needs a deeper explanation of bitumen's composition, properties, or practical calculations (such as estimating bitumen quantity for paving projects), I recently found a detailed resource that explains these topics clearly: BitumenCalcPro. It may be useful if you're looking for more technical information or calculation examples.
why bitumen is used
Mustek manufactures a variety of packed bitumen products. Their bitumen products are produced at the Europoort refinery in Rotterdam, Germany. They produce 3 types of bitumen: penetration bitumen,oxidized bitumen, and hard bitumen.
Typically, bitumen and "asphalt" are interchangeable.

bitumen pitch means road surface
'asphalt' refers to a mixture of mineral aggregate and bitumen (bitumen)is the black liquid which is extracted from the crude oil....
ASTM D6847 gives the procedure for it
cut black bitumen needs a solvent to dilute it whereas emulsion doesn't.
Cut-back bitumen uses solvent as the mixing medium where in Emulsion uses water to dilute bitumen for the purpose of tack-coating / road works
It means eyes, black like coal. Bitumen is the British term for coal.
