Graffiti Removal - is an “art” in it’s self as there is no exact science to removing graffiti despite whatever some may say. Surface types, paint & markers differ making the removal sometimes difficult and time-consuming.
Attempts to remove graffiti using harsh chemicals or abrasives are used by some and this can cause permanent damage to the masonry that may be worse than the graffiti itself to remove. Some use high-powered washers using sand (grit blasting), they blast off the graffiti yes but take half the stone work with them - This is not the answer as the damage to the stone face can be horrendous, the way forward has to be “softly softly”.
Malcolm uses a softly softly approach, no sand blasting but a careful assessment of the site to obtain the best level of cleanliness without doing detrimental damage to the surface.
Before treatment over the whole area commences a test area is done to help fine tune the method to be used, local stone/brick etc can and does vary from site to site.
Sometimes under fresh graffiti one finds a “smiley” another mural or tag that was done prior, this adds to the degree of skill required in leaving the site “clean”.
Most graffiti is made with spray paints. Although a number of solvents and paint strippers are capable of dissolving or breaking down these paints, some may permanently discolor or stain the masonry surface; as a result the remaining paint may become more difficult, or even impossible to remove.
Paints that have been on the surface for several weeks or months; the processes of hardening is likely to be complete or well-advanced; the solubility of the paint is reduced and it will be more difficult to remove than newly painted graffiti. – A good reason to act quickly.
The pigment or the binder of the paint may leave residues in or below the surface of the stone. These residual stains or ”graffiti ghost" such as those from any kind of red paint or the fine black pigments used in spray paints, may be particularly difficult to remove.
Protective coating - clear graffiti resistant coatings can make graffiti removal easy, to find out more take a look at Protective coatings - click here - they are clear, will not change substrate colour or sheen, are moisture vapour permeable & stain resistant.

One tag on a wall invites another tag and eventually it wears the area down. People don't feel safe in areas with graffiti and it has a big impact on businesses.
