GRAFFITI CLEANER A bus in Italy, covered with an adhesive polyesther film, was coated with Enamo Grip Clear. The graffiti is easily removed when cleaned with SPI’s Graffiti Cleaner. The Graffiti Cleaner worked much faster than competing products, and the finished surface was left in pristine condition. SPI’s Graffiti Cleaner should be tested for compatibility with any surface being cleaned. Although Graffiti Cleaner is strong on graffiti, it did not harm the rubber seals around the windows and doors.

The anti-graffiti system is based on Enamo Grip. Enamo Grip is a two-part polyurethane enamel coating that performs as a hard, durable topcoat on steel, concrete, masonry, wood, and most other surfaces. Made of a self-leveling formula, it provides exceptional adhesion, flexibility and abrasion/impact resistance as well as excellent color retention and chalk resistance when used on exterior surfaces. Enamo Grip is resistant to water and humidity, stains, chemicals, and other harsh solvents. Benefits: Graffiti protection High-gloss, semi-gloss, satin finish Extremely tough Self-leveling (no brush marks) Provides a permanent, protective membrane that stops water penetration

Then use a brush any trapped air bubbles, if any. 3) If application is by spray, use a standard airless sprayer (2,800 psi or less) with a .024 tip. NOTE: The number of coats and the thickness of each will be in accordance with the job specifications.
MINIMUM SPREAD RATES (mil thickness) Porous Surfaces – Apply in 2 coats at 200 sq ft per gallon at 8 mils wet/3.67 mils dry. Non-Porous Surfaces – Apply at 250 sq ft per gallon at 6.5 mils wet/3 mils dry.
Can be applied as a one-coat system for graffiti protection (Enamo Grip in clear finish only).
CURE TIME MIXING 1) 2) 3) 4)
Open pail, mix base with curing agent 3:1 ratio. Mix by hand for two minutes. If below 70 F. degrees, allow to stand for 30 minutes. Begin application; however, do not apply in direct sunlight. During the summer months, apply the coating in the morning or after 4:00 p.m.
1) 2) 3) 4)
One hour to touch at 70 F. degrees. Overcoating window is three hours at 70 F. degrees or longer. Fully cures in ten days. If temperature is over 90 F. degrees, cure time and pot life is shortened to one hour.
CLEAN-UP EQUIPMENT 1)
POT LIFE Four hours at 70 F. degrees; two hours at 90 F. degrees, once base and curing agent have been mixed.

GRAFFITI CLEANER A bus in Italy, covered with an adhesive polyesther film, was coated with Enamo Grip Clear. The graffiti is easily removed when cleaned with SPI’s Graffiti Cleaner. The Graffiti Cleaner worked much faster than competing products, and the finished surface was left in pristine condition. SPI’s Graffiti Cleaner should be tested for compatibility with any surface being cleaned. Although Graffiti Cleaner is strong on graffiti, it did not harm the rubber seals around the windows and doors.
