2. Anti-graffiti coatings
2.1 What types of coating are needed to combat graffiti?
The purpose of an anti-graffiti paint system is not to prevent graffiti, but rather to resist the chemicals used to remove it.
There are two types of coating to combat graffiti.
While the goal of reducing the environmental impact of varnishes and their solvents is a priority, the fact remains that varnish and adhesive formulations must meet longevity and durability criteria.
This criterion has an environmental aspect in its own right, insofar as the longer life of paints and adhesives leads directly to higher renewal intervals.
