You probably already know that Korthals’ permanent anti-graffiti coatings are the solution for easy graffiti removal. These coatings prevent graffiti from adhering to surfaces, making it significantly easier to clean affected areas. However, thanks to these same properties, our anti-graffiti coatings are also suitable for other applications. Read more below.
Removing green deposits from building façades is a time-consuming and costly task that can take a toll on the budgets of companies and public institutions. As is often the case, prevention is better than cure.
Moss and algae thrive in damp environments. By applying our anti-graffiti coating, the treated surface gains a water-repellent film. (This is typically preceded by a primer to seal the porosity of the substrate.) As a result, rainwater can no longer cling to or penetrate the surface, which significantly reduces the likelihood of green buildup.
In addition to graffiti, illegal postering is a persistent issue, particularly in urban areas. Traffic signs, public bins, and concrete structures are often affected. Unauthorized stickers degrade the streetscape and are notoriously difficult to remove—especially the adhesive residue.
While our anti-graffiti coatings can’t fully prevent illegal postering, they do act as a deterrent. Stickers adhere less easily, and any leftover adhesive is easier to remove. The coating serves as a barrier layer, protecting the surface during cleaning and virtually eliminating the risk of damage.
The multifunctional nature of our permanent anti-graffiti coatings makes them a popular choice in the infrastructure sector. Unlike semi-permanent coatings—which rely on a sacrificial layer—our coatings do not come off during cleaning. This means they continue to provide long-term protection without needing reapplication.
Great to hear! At Korthals, you can count on a flawless finish. Curious to learn more about the possibilities with our anti-graffiti coatings? You’ll find all the details in our brochure.
