Graffiti removal I’m a newbie

I have a client asking me to remove graffiti of a business. I was thinking using a wall surface cleaner. Have no idea what kind of chemicals to use or to spray on. I run cold water units so this kinda limits me . Any ideas?? I

Curious about this myself. We have a lot of graffiti here.

It’s been quite a while since I managed mall properties, but if I remember properly it was a two step chemical and hot water to take it off.
But it’s also a loosing battle. Quicker and cheaper to keep extra paint on hand and just roll over it

Only from reading across forums but never tried it, search for Worlds Best Graffiti remover on youtube etc. Maybe that helps.

Thank you i Just ordered a bottle from them

That may be a job for a media blaster. Let us know how it comes out. I’ve heard taginator works too. But I know blasting works.

I actually used their products and were so impressed that I sent them an email and asked if I could use their product name and logo on my website and brochures and or truck if I chose to…they gladly agreed and even sent me high resolution versions of all of their logos and written expression that I could use them as needed!!! Great people and a great product…
Matter of fact I got some sitting in front of me now! But I also have some clingon,dragon juice and a ton of other chems too lol

Taginator or similar, pump up sprayer, agitate/dwell on, rinse and repeat as necessary.
Cold water is a bit slower but will get the job done just fine.

You are also able to find it in some Sherwin Williams stores and don’t have to order online.

Hey @Ecowashpressurewash, does it work on painted surfaces or is it like a paint stripper ,and everything comes off ?

@Hotshot I’ve only used it on concrete, glass and aluminum window frames…not sure if the window frames were painted or anodized but the stuff works really well…I followed the directions on the jug and it took every bit of the spray paint off…they have different products for different types of surfaces and different types of graffiti.

My plan was to try out a bunch of different graffiti removal products…so I could find the best one. …I just don’t get many calls for it…which sucks because it’s good money…especially if someone has already tried paint thinner or paint stripper and they can’t get it off, and you show up and get it off in 15 minutes totally blows their mind

@Hotshot hey man I just double-checked their website just because I was curious their sensitive surface graffiti remover is safe for painted surfaces…its a brush on wipe off
