Résumé : |
It's war : graffiti artists no longer stand a chance with the introduction of a new generation resin from the coatings industry.
Graffiti, especially on buildings, public transport vehicles or public utilities, is a great nuisance. In recent years there has been a drastic increase in the amount of damage done to these utilities due to the application of graffiti. For instance in Berlin/Germany approximately 25,000 spray cans are misused to produce graffiti every day. And, as it appears impossible to reduce the amount of graffiti being applied, another solution must be found. The goal is the removal of graffiti using simple cleaning methods, if possible only with water. The costs of graffiti removal is immense. For a long time the coatings industry has thought of different possibilities of a simple method of graffiti removal. There are several possibilities to make coatings for public utilities and transport vehicles graffiti-resistant, including the use of sacrificial coatings and coatings having resistance to aggressive cleaning methods and chemicals. These include the modification of the coating with anti-graffiti resins, the modification of the coating with fluorosilane compounds the use of fluorocarbon-based coatings, and the installation of clear films (PTFE, for example). Price and working properties speak for the modification of coatings with anti-graffiti resins. |
