Inquiry #1: Is there any chance that Caltrans would consider changing (Line Items 21-24) TWO-COMPONENT PAINT Traffic Stripe and Pavement Marking to PAINT (2-COAT) OR THERMOPLASTIC. This would allow more competitive bidding from Striping Subcontractors as there currently is only 1 contractor in California that has a truck for TWO-COMPONENT PAINT.
