FAQs
Why does a newly paved court still need acrylic surfacing? A paved tennis court still needs the surface system that players see and use. Acrylic surfacing provides the colored finish above the pavement and works with the final markings to establish the playing area. Before that system is installed, the new pavement needs appropriate preparation and curing for the selected products. Coordinating these stages helps each layer perform its intended role, from the supporting pavement to the completed court surface.
What can be customized during court resurfacing? The renewed coating can carry a different color palette, updated boundaries, or selected graphics such as a logo or facility name. Contrasting playing and surrounding areas can make the court easier to read, while consistent branding can connect several courts within a facility. These choices should be settled before application so colors, markings, and graphics work together. Customization is most useful when it strengthens the court’s identity while retaining clear game boundaries.
