Abstract: A peelable roadway marking tape has a multi-layer structure which provides durability and ease of removal. The marking tape includes a top layer of pigmented vinyl paint with reflective glass beads incorporated therein applied to an intermediate backing layer of either aluminum or vinyl. The backing layer is then laminated to a polyester mesh reinforcement layer, and a pressure-sensitive adhesive hot melt is applied to the under side surface of the mesh for attachment to the roadway surface. In an alternate embodiment of the invention, a layer of high density polyethylene is laminated between the mesh layer and an aluminum backing layer.
