Duracourt Application Procedures

Apply Duracourt Sport Court Coatings With Confidence

Follow the recommended masking, rolling, thinning, and material estimating steps to create a durable, professional-looking court surface.

Start with a prepared surface

Before applying Duracourt, make sure the surface is clean, repaired, dry, and free of loose paint, grease, oil, dust, and debris.

Step One

Mask Boundary Lines

Before applying Duracourt, mask the boundary lines with 2" masking tape.

Masking speeds up the coating process and helps reduce the need to trim large areas with brushes.

Step Two

Roll the Playing Area

Coat the inbounds playing area first, then finish by coating the out-of-bounds area.

Use an 18" roller cover with a 1/2" nap and a 4′–5′ extension handle to speed the coating process.

Step Three

Thin, Stir & Spread

For greater ease of application, thin Duracourt coatings 10% with water and stir thoroughly.

Pour approximately 1/2 gallon onto the surface and spread liberally. Do not stretch the coating too thin.

Material Needs

Use a spread rate of approximately 125 square feet per gallon to determine your Duracourt material needs.

Spread Rate

Estimate coating needs using approximately 125 sq. ft. per gallon.

Tennis Courts

A standard tennis court may require 20–25 gallons for the inbounds area and 35–40 gallons for the out-of-bounds area.

Pickleball Courts

Pickleball inbounds dimensions are 20′ × 44′ and typically require approximately 8–9 gallons of coating.

Remember to account for court lines, which are typically 2" wide, with baselines typically 4" wide. White is commonly used, but other line colors may be used when adding pickleball lines to an existing tennis court.
