Types of graffiti we commonly remove in Swiss Cottage

Graffiti comes in many forms and the type of graffiti often dictates the removal technique. In Swiss Cottage you may encounter several common styles and patterns. Here is an overview of what we typically remove:

• Traditional spray paint tags simple or elaborate signatures sprayed quickly on walls fences or signage. Tags can vary from a few letters to longer monikers. These are usually the easiest to treat but frequent tagging can indicate ongoing vandalism that needs a broader strategy including protective coatings or anti graffiti layer application.
• Throw ups larger lettering and shapes often in two colours which can cover larger surface areas. Removal requires careful solvent use to avoid damage to underlying materials while restoring the surface.
• Stencil art cut out shapes or letters sprayed over a stencil. We remove the sprayed paint and can offer guidelines to prevent reoccurrence on the same surface.
• Acid etched graffiti this is a more serious form of vandalism where the chemical action etches into glass stone or metal leaving a permanent effect. Removal is more technical and may require professional cleaning and restoration procedures to reclaim the original surface look.
• Murals and legitimate art sometimes what looks like graffiti is in fact commissioned art. Our team recognises the difference and will protect authentic artistic works while removing vandalism.
• Graffiti on sensitive surfaces windows glass doors and delicate building materials require a careful approach to avoid damage while removing the unwanted graffiti.

We always begin with an assessment to identify the surface type the extent of the graffiti and the best removal method. We explain options in plain language so you understand what will happen what it will cost and how long it will take. If the graffiti has been present for some time the process can be more complex because the paint may have penetrated porous surfaces or the etched marks may require multiple steps to restore clarity. We will never push you toward a solution you do not need or want. Our job is to deliver a clean facade with minimal disruption and at a fair price.

Surfaces we treat in Swiss Cottage

Different surfaces require different approaches. Here is a guide to typical surfaces we encounter in Swiss Cottage and how we handle them:

• Brick and cement porous buildings and walls respond well to a combination of solvent based products and gentle mechanical scouring where needed. We are careful to avoid harming the surface and we always test a small area first.
• Painted walls painted brick render and concrete walls can be cleaned effectively with the right products and techniques preserving the paint where possible or advising repaint if required after removal.
• Glass and windows glass surfaces demand caution especially with acid etched graffiti. We use non abrasive methods first and only apply stronger techniques if necessary with prior consent from the property owner.
• Metal surfaces metal railings doors and signs often hold graffiti that adheres strongly. We remove graffiti without harming the metal finish and coat surfaces if needed to prevent reoccurrence.
• Wood and timber finishes timber surfaces can be sensitive to solvents. We tailor the approach to protect the wood while removing the graffiti and may apply a protective top coat to extend the lifespan of the surface.
• Stone surfaces stone like limestone or sandstone can be affected by aggressive cleaners. We moderate the cleaning and use surface friendly methods to avoid etching or discolouration.

Understanding acid etched graffiti

Acid etched graffiti occurs when strong cleaning agents or vandalism reacts with the stone or glass surface leaving an etched impression. This is especially common on limestone or glass storefronts where the surface is compromised. If you notice a cloudy or ghost like mark that seems embedded in the surface it could be etched graffiti. Removal requires specialized equipment and careful handling to restore clarity while protecting the integrity of the material. We have extensive experience dealing with etched marks and we will explain every option available including whether a professional restoration or a repaint is the best long term remedy. If you are dealing with etched graffiti on windows or glass we can discuss options to protect against future incidents such as anti graffiti coatings which create a temporary barrier making removal faster next time.
