The guys that do this on a decent scale tend to use hot water machines and task specific chemicals.

I have successfully carried out a few small jobs, linked in to other work. I use industrial paint stripper and lowish pressure with our cold water machine. You have to be very careful with splashes and run off.

The paint stripper is pretty much the same as Nitromorse (gel texture) and would take a fair bit of time to apply to a full length wall. For this reason and with our set-up we wouldn't be competitive should we quote for larger jobs.

Derek i use graffiti hotlines products, they are water based so with most local goverments considerd friendly, easy to apply, cold water on low pressure is fine.
Hot water i have found is only needed when removing graffiti which has been protected by a wax coating which needs heat to remove

I am going to do this course myself, i don't really think its that expensive..I was told on another forum that it was a great course and hands on plus they provide good after care if you need it like help with pricing etc..

Have a look at tensid. I do a lot of graffiti removal, there is two in particular we use, Easistrip and Ghost removal. Never let me down. They are about 50 per 5 litre tub but well worth the cost!!!!
