« on: April 29, 2013, 06:10:47 pm »

Hi lads

Hoping you can help one of my new clients is having a problem removing graffiti from brick work the bricks are yellow stock (that what I call them) the product they are using is restore from southern chemical services (it smells like nitromors) I tried it today total waist of money

Can some recommend a product?

Those yellow bricks are very porous and the paint has probably soaked in. Do you have any idea what paint was used ? I have had radiator spray that was quite stubborn but came off with a good dwell and a bit of heat. Len performance chemicals stock removers and they are near you

They do a paint stripper called pcs200, good stuff.

Thanks for you response it’s not paint it’s some type of pen (girls school)

Pen is a very different Animal to remove..it's a stain as opposed to a coating. Tel 01704 880800 and speak to John. Do not make an promises  to the customer until you do a test area first.
