Sacrificial Anti-Graffiti Coating

Overview

Sacrificial Anti-Graffiti Coating is a clear, wax-polymer barrier for heritage and natural masonry where appearance matters. Once applied it is almost imperceptible and won’t darken, discolour or create a “wet-look” on stone, brick or concrete. The breathable film resists marker and paint. When graffiti occurs, hot water pressure-washing removes both the graffiti and the coating in one step—then simply re-apply to restore protection.

Key benefits

• Invisible finish: maintains natural stone/brick tones; retains architectural character.
• Breathable: moisture-vapour permeable; suitable for mineral substrates.
• Low-impact chemistry: silicone- and fluoropolymer-free; wax-based and reversible.
• Simple maintenance: remove graffiti with hot water; re-coat the cleaned area the same day.
• Versatile application: brush or low-pressure spray; two coats typically required.

Where to use

• Listed buildings, heritage stonework and monuments
• Natural brick, concrete, terracotta and other mineral masonry
• Areas where a permanent “glaze” is not desired

Application

1. Ensure the surface is clean and dry (slightly damp is acceptable when re-treating after wash-off).
2. Apply by brush or low-pressure spray to saturate the surface.
3. Apply two coats, allowing 3–4 hours between coats. Do not apply below 5 °C.

Coverage (guide)

• Polished surfaces/tiles: 3–6 m²/L
• Un-polished & porous surfaces: 2–5 m²/L
• Brick, concrete, terracotta: 2–5 m²/L

Graffiti removal

Pressure-wash with water at ~90 °C, 80–90 bar. Graffiti and soiling are removed together with the sacrificial film. Re-apply to restore protection.

Notes & limitations

• Vertical surfaces only.
• May dull polished surfaces—always test an inconspicuous area first.
