Solutions for Graffiti on Masonry Walls

The problem of graffiti on masonry walls can be resolved by removing it and repainting over it as follows:

Removing scratches:

• Use thinner or Acetone to remove spray paint. For exterior surfaces, a high-pressure washer can be used to wash it off.
• Marks from Marker pens can be wiped off with a cloth soaked in alcohol.
• Colored pencil stains can be removed with a cleaning solution containing ammonia.
• Don’t forget to clean the surface wiped with cleaning agents or substances thoroughly before using that area.
   

Repainting:

• Rough surfaces often make it difficult to scrub off patterns or scratches, so it is recommended to repaint.
• Clean the surface of any dirt, grease, dust, and foreign substances, then allow the surface to dry completely.
• Apply a coat of Beger Pro Quick Primer B-1900 and then paint over it with the desired topcoat, such as:
  • the BegerCool DiamondShield 15 from the cool house color group, and BegerShield AirFresh Anti-Virus Gold iON.
  • the BegerShield GRIPTECH 2IN1 RUSTPROOF from the 2In1 color group.
  • the premium-grade house paint Synotex Shield.
  • the ready-to-use paint with primer mixed in, such as Beger One.
