It’s getting chilly out there which can make graffiti and paint removal a challenge. Here are a few tips for cold weather removals.
The main thing to remember is when temperatures fall everything takes much longer to dissolve. Dwell times need to be 2-3 times longer to yield the same results, and it's often helpful to leave the product on much longer than that. It also helps to keep the product inside so they are at room temperature when you're ready to use them.
Hot water pressure washers/steam cleaners make a big difference.
During the winter months we will sometimes apply Spraycan graffiti remover and Heritage Graffiti Remover several times. This will keep it wet for much longer and while it's wet it's working. Of course, pressure washing in freezing conditions is tricky so watch out for the slip hazards from the run off etc. Always have some salt available.
For signs, trucks, trailers, and other Sensitive Surfaces, you may need to leave our Sensitive Surface Graffiti Remover on for several minutes before coming back to lightly agitate and wipe away.
