RUNNING: Spiking Outdoors
« on: Oct 24, 2017, 01:38 pm »
Hi,

does anyone have any advice for spiking outdoor repertory (3 shows usually)? In the past we have used spray paint but that fades in the sun in about 2 weeks.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

AJ

What is the surface that you are performing on?

How about topping your paint with a UV-resistant clear coat?

Sidewalk chalk for rehearsals works very well
