	AN AFFORDABLE SOLUTION FOR COMBATING GRAFFITI	
Graffiti-Resistant Coating System

Graffiti costs U.S. building owners an estimated $25 billion per year.
Steelscape offers a factory applied graffiti-resistant coating system specifically formulated to work with PPG Industries’ DuraPrep® Prep 400 graffiti remover.
This innovative coating system includes a primer, a color coat, and a graffiti-resistant clear coat. The clear coating works as a barrier of protection over the color coat layer and prevents most graffiti material from gripping or shadowing the surface. The DuraPrep Prep 400 is applied directly on the graffiti and easily wipes it off of the pre- painted graffiti-resistant coated metal surface.
The graffiti removal system offers building owners an easy and fully tested maintenance method to safely remove graffiti… keeping buildings looking their best.

The Graffiti Removal System Includes:	
Graffiti-Resistant Clear Coating System in four gloss options.	
#17394 Low Gloss Graffiti-Resistant Coating (10 - 15)	
#17395 Medium Gloss Graffiti-Resistant Coating (25 - 35)	
#17396 Medium Gloss Graffiti-Resistant Coating (50 - 70)	
#17392 High Gloss Graffiti-Resistant Coating (80+)	
Graffiti Remover DuraPrep® Prep 400 available through PPG Industries Inc.	
DuraPrep® Prep 400 is a water based, non-flammable spray that is environmentally friendly with no caustic chemicals.
