Graffiticoat

Description:

Graffiticoat is a 2 pack exterior / interior pigmented or clear urethane that has excellent non-yellowing exterior durability, and is designed to facilitate the removal of graffiti from its surface without effecting the substrate.

Graffiticoat's 100% crosslinking characteristic makes it extremely chemical resistant.

Graffiticoat contains sophisticated silicone additives that prevent permanent adhesion of subsequent grafiti.  With the assistance of a chemical cleaning solution, this graffiti can be removed without effecting the protected substrate.

Suggested Uses:

Graffiticoat is particularly suited to overcoat residential and commercial buildings constructed of pre-cast concrete, concrete, bricks, fibre cement sheeting, metal claddings, cement plaster including concrete blocks.  etc.  DO NOT use on cedar or soft timbers.

Sealer / Basecoat Application To:

Concrete or block fibre cement (hardiflex / harditex) buildings, etc.

Apply 2 coats of Aquepoxy in colour required, then apply 2 coats of Graffiticoat.

Alternatively, apply 1 coat Strongwall Acrylic Sealer, 2 coats of Sprayflex Hi Build.  allow to dry.  then aply 2 coats of Graffiticoat.

These systems will provide optimum weatherproofing and flexibility on concrete, fibrolite and block buildings.

Coating Over Existing Paints:

Trials must be undertaken to ensure compatibility.  (Refer to Manufacturers for technical assistance on unfamiliar substrates.)

Sealer Application to Bricks:

On all bricks or clay tiles a sealer must be used (ensure the surface is completely dry.)

Apply 1 coat of 2 pack Graffitiseal (allow 4 hours to dry)

Apply 2 coats of Graffiticoat (allow 8 hours between coats)

Refer to Special Finishes (NZ) Ltd for application specifications on unfamiliar substrates and correct sealers / graffiti cleaner removers etc.

Use with adequate ventilation and correct breathing masks should be used.

Removal of Graffiti:

1 coat of Chemsolve No.1 should be applied to affected areas.  Agitate with a nylon brush and wash off with water or waterblast immediately.  Repeat process if neccessary.  On other difficult to remove graffiti, use Chemsolve No.6.  With nylon brush agitate and remove with water immediately.
