One pass. One bright white line. No mixing, no pouring, no guesswork.
Bowcom Atomic is a ready to use, low volume line marking paint that over-marks a full size grass football pitch with as little as 1.1 litres.
If you look after a pitch, you know the Saturday morning routine. Mixing buckets, guessing dilution, then walking the same line twice because the first pass came out grey.
Atomic removes that step entirely. It goes straight from the container into the machine, ready for use, and gives a clean bright line in a single pass at normal walking speed.
The formulation blends highly micronised titanium dioxide with resins and surfactants, which is why the brightness holds and the line lasts rather than fading after the first heavy week.
One 10 litre container covers roughly nine over-marks of a standard 650 linear metre grass pitch, so a single unit carries a club through a good stretch of the season.
Atomic is built for hollow cone nozzle systems and pairs directly with the Bowcom Atom applicator. It also runs through non OEM machines, so you are not locked into one brand of kit.
It stays stable in solution when stored, so a part used container in the shed in October is still usable in February. Keep it at room temperature or above 5 degrees.
Mike Phelan spent a career around pitches prepared to professional standards, where the markings were as much a part of the setup as the goals. That standard is now available to grassroots clubs and schools.

Frequently asked questions
How much paint do I need to mark a football pitch?
Bowcom Atomic over-marks a standard grass pitch of 650 linear metres using as little as 1.1 litres. A 10 litre container therefore covers roughly nine over-marks.
Do I need to dilute it?
No. Atomic is ready for use. Pour it straight into the machine with no mixing, water or measuring.
Which machine do I need?
The Bowcom Atom applicator is the direct match. Atomic also sprays through other low volume systems and non OEM applicators using hollow cone or fan jet nozzles.
Can I use it in a Bowcom GMX?
Only with a fan jet nozzle. Hollow cone nozzles work exclusively with the Atom applicator and its high pressure pump.
How many passes do I need?
A single pass at normal walking speed is enough. There is no need to walk the line twice.
How should I store it?
Ideally at room temperature and always above 5 degrees C. Atomic remains stable in solution, so part used containers keep well between sessions.
