How to remove graffiti 4 tips for cleaning your facade

Effectively removing graffiti from your facade can be achieved through several methods, each with varying degrees of success. Steam cleaning at 150°C is considered the easiest method, using high pressure and heat to dissolve graffiti, but may struggle with multiple layers. A gentler approach involves compressed air and baking powder, although this may not be as efficient. Sand blasting is highly effective but can damage walls, so caution is advised.

For a more reliable solution, using HG graffiti remover is recommended, as it works on various surfaces like brick, concrete, and untreated wood, while being biodegradable and free from volatile solvents. Applying an anti-graffiti coating post-removal can help prevent future occurrences. Discover the advantages and limitations of each method, and learn how to optimize your graffiti removal strategy.

1. Steam cleaning

Steam of 150 degrees C will clean the facade. The high pressure and the heat of the steam ensure the graffiti will loosen and dissolve. Calmly go over the graffiti with the steam cleaner. This is generally considered to be the best and the easiest method. However, it doesn't work every time. Particularly when several layers of graffiti have been sprayed. 

2. Compressed air and baking powder

You can remove graffiti yourself with a combination of baking powder and compressed air. This method is friendlier for the surface the graffiti is on, but as a result not always as efficient. Apply the baking powder to the surface and spray it off with compressed air. In many cases the graffiti will come off. 

3. Sand blasting 

Sand blasting is the most aggressive way of removing graffiti. A blasting agent, such as sand or fine gravel, is added to water. You use this with a high-pressure jet and spray the graffiti from the wall. This method is effective, but we do not recommend it because it damages your wall.

Remove future graffiti with an anti-graffiti coating

You hope that once the graffiti has been removed it does not return. There is no guarantee.
After you have removed the graffiti, you can spray anti-graffiti coating on your facade. That makes future graffiti easier to remove.
