Description

• A two pack waterbased clear coat that can be applied to painted and unpainted surfaces to allow easy removal of graffiti.
• The clear coat forms a very hard, glossy, UV protectant finish that allows solvent removal of the graffiti.
• Most graffiti can be removed, although there are some felt tip pens that will stain the surface and may leave ghosting on the surface
• Full graffiti proof properties within 12 hours of application

 

Application:

• Can be applied with a brush, pad applicator or spray.
• Do not use a roller as this may cause foaming.
