Abstract
A water proof chalk line compositions for use with chalk line devices for snapping guide lines on wet surfaces that will not wash away when precipitation such as rain falls thereon. The water proof chalk line compositions for use with chalk line devices includes an effective amount of colored chalk mixed with an effective amount of concrete dye and applied to a moistened snap line of a chalk line device.
Claims7
A chalk line composition for applying to a snap line of a chalk line device, chalk line compositions comprising:
- an effective amount of colored chalk;
- an effective amount of concrete dye;
- and
- wherein said effective amount of colored chalk comprises five parts by volume, and wherein said effective amount of concrete dye comprises three parts by volume.
A chalk line composition for applying to a snap line of a chalk line device, chalk line compositions comprising:
- an effective amount of colored chalk comprising calcium carbonate, wherein said effective amount of colored chalk comprises five parts by volume, wherein said colored chalk has a color selected from the group consisting of red and yellow;
- and
- an effective amount of concrete dye, wherein said effective amount of concrete dye comprises three parts by volume, wherein said concrete dye has a color selected from the group consisting of red and yellow.
A method for forming a guide line on a surface comprising the acts of:
- mixing an effective amount of colored chalk with an effective amount of concrete dye to form a chalk line composition;
- moistening a portion of a snap line extending from a chalk line device;
- applying said chalk line composition along a length of said moistened portion of said snap line extending from said chalk line device;
- stretching said snap line outwardly from said chalk line device adjacent a surface;
- snapping said snap line against said surface to form a guide line with said chalk line composition transferred from said snap line on to said surface;
- pouring said chalk line composition in a container having a pouring nozzle, wherein act of applying said chalk line composition along a length of said moistened portion of said snap line extending from said chalk line device further comprises the act of applying said chalk line composition to said moistened portion of said snap line with said pouring nozzle of said container to coat said moistened portion of said snap line with said chalk line composition;
- and
- wherein said effective amount of colored chalk comprises five parts by volume, and wherein said effective amount of concrete dye comprises three parts by volume.
