Application
ANTIGRAFFITI is designed for various types of porous surfaces such as concrete, bricks, mineral plasters, acrylic plasters, as well as painted surfaces (facade paints). It can also be used on non-porous surfaces such as marble, granite, stone, however, the effectiveness of the protection should always be tested on a small area before applying to the entire surface.
ANTIGRAFFITI works best on surfaces that are not permanently exposed to weather conditions such as tunnels, underpasses, etc. Durability in such conditions is up to 5 years. In the case of coatings exposed to rain, moisture, radiation, the durability can be reduced to one year in case of high exposure to weather conditions - especially the sun.

Properties
ANTI-GRAFFITI impregnate:
- creates one-time colorless matte coating
- gives resistance against graffiti
- gives hydrophobicity of protected surface, protects
- surfaces against moisture, precipitation
- increases life of protected surfaces
- increases frost resistance
- protects against pollution

Expert advice
Surface preparation:
ApplyANTIGRAFFITI to a cleaned and dry surface. Clean surfaces preferably with water pressure tools.
with detergent. Remove traces of algae and fungus with agents designed for this purpose, e.g. GRZYBOBOBI.
For best results, it is recommended that the moisture content of the substrate should not exceed 4% and the temperature of the environment and the substrate should be between +100C and +300C, and the relative humidity of the air should not exceed 60%. Carry out painting work in suitable atmospheric conditions (no fog, rain, snow).
When covering painted surfaces, make sure that the paint has good adhesion to the substrate and is resistant to washing so as not to damage it during graffiti removal with a steam cleaner.
Application:
Stir the product before use. If precipitates are visible, the product should be strained before use. Precipitates may appear if the factory seal is opened and too much water is allowed to evaporate.
Apply two coats. Apply the next layer before the previous one dries, which is preferably 15 minutes after applying the previous layer.
The impregnate can be applied with a roller or a brush. Avoid streaking. During application avoid excessive foaming of the product on the surface. If foam is formed, remove it before it dries.
Apply the product evenly on the surface. Special care should be taken with dark-colored surfaces, where streaks may be visible if the product is applied unevenly.
ANTIGRAFFITI applied on the substrate gives a darkening of the coating, so when applying it only to a certain height, use an even cut-off, for example, with a painter's tape, or it is recommended to apply on geometrically limited parts, such as a cornice, gutter, etc.
Before protecting the main surface, always make a test in a not very visible place to check the effect and differences between the coated and uncoated surface.
The coating achieves full properties after 72 hours. Freshly coated surfaces should be protected from rain for 12 hours.
Graffiti Removal:
The protected surface after painting with graffiti paint can be washed with a steam cleaner (hot water 70-900C). It is recommended to wash as soon as possible after applying graffiti paint. Sometimes it may be necessary to use a sponge or brush to remove coating residue.
For very porous surfaces, removal may be difficult and it may be necessary to use specialized graffiti removers
ANTI-GRAFFITI is resistant to one-time cleaning. It forms a protective coating, so called washable, i.e. when removing graffiti, the ANTIGRAFFITI coating is also removed. Re-apply ANTIGRAFFITI in the place of the cleaning done, according to the instructions above.
Use water to wash the painting tools.
