Sameday Graffiti Removal in Mill Hill

In Mill Hill certain surfaces require careful handling. For example traditional spray paint on brick responds well to solvent based cleaners used at controlled temperatures. On glass or metal different approaches are necessary to avoid damage or discoloration. Acid etched graffiti presents a particular challenge because it actually alters the surface and obliterates the paint layer. We have the experience and equipment required to restore the affected area with minimal disruption. This is part of what makes our Mill Hill service stand out.

Types of graffiti we remove in Mill Hill

Graffiti comes in several forms each requiring a different removal approach. Here is a quick guide to the kinds of graffiti we encounter most often in Mill Hill and how we handle them.

• Traditional spray paint graffiti: The most common type. We use careful surface appropriate solvents and removal methods to lift the paint while minimising damage to substrates.
• Throw ups and tags: These are fast done signatures and logos usually on flat surfaces. They are typically easier to remove than large pieces but still benefit from professional treatment to avoid staining or ghosting.
• Stenciled graffiti: Stencil patterns can be stubborn if paint has seeped into the pores of the material. Our team uses precise methods to lift the stencil markings and restore the underlying surface.
• Acid etched graffiti: This type literally alters the surface making it look worse as time passes. We have specialised equipment and chemical safe removal techniques to reverse the etching or restore the affected area.
• Graffiti on glass and metal surfaces: Windows doors and metal panels require careful handling to prevent scratches or corrosion. We use surface appropriate techniques for such materials.
• Wildcard surfaces: Some areas combine different materials like brick and render or timber and metal. We tailor our approach to each surface to ensure consistent results across the whole area.

Regardless of the surface or graffiti type we always begin with a thorough assessment. Our aim is to choose the safest and most effective method for that particular job in Mill Hill which often means a combination of cleaning steps performed in carefully controlled sequences. We do not take shortcuts and we never recommend procedures that could cause further damage to your property.
