Graffiti removal

Graffiti removal starts with the surface beneath.

Paint on porous brick needs different treatment from ink on a smooth panel. Purion removes graffiti from suitable surfaces using products and techniques selected for the material. We work purposefully and explain the result that can realistically be achieved.

Cleaning method and materials
01

Assess paint and material together

Paint type, age, porosity and existing coatings affect removal. We also consider the condition of stone and joints. With fragile surfaces in particular, the treatment must not cause more damage than the contamination itself.

02

Use a trial area where needed

A small test shows how paint and substrate respond to the selected method. Contact time, rinsing, pressure and any heat are chosen accordingly. Pressure washing is a tool when appropriate, not a reason to treat vulnerable masonry more aggressively.

03

Account for the surrounding area

We protect adjoining surfaces and prepare the work area for pedestrians and building users. Released paint and cleaning residues need controlled removal. Drainage and any specialist wastewater handling are considered in relation to the location and chosen treatment.

04

Explain shadows and protection

Paint may penetrate deeply into a porous surface. A shadow or discolouration can remain despite careful cleaning, and we discuss this beforehand. Repairs and any protective coating are assessed separately rather than assumed to be included in graffiti removal.

Questions about graffiti removal

Can graffiti always be removed completely?

No. The substrate, paint and depth of penetration affect the result. A trial area helps establish what is achievable.

Do you use pressure washing?

Pressure can be part of the method where suitable. Treatment is adjusted for vulnerable materials to limit the risk of damage.
