Characteristics of anti-vandal coatings

It will be very unpleasant for any owner of a country house to find inscriptions made with the help of special paint cans on his facade. Naturally, such an inscription can be quite easily removed, for this there are even special chemical washes that can quite quickly and effectively remove the inscriptions left on the walls. But the use of such products may leave marks that will be especially visible on previously painted surfaces.

An excellent alternative to such a wash will be the use of special anti-vandal paint designed for walls. This is the name of special compounds that are designed to treat various surfaces. Such paint will be an excellent protection even for walls made of concrete or metal.

Vandal-proof mixtures form coatings that are characterized by extremely low adhesion. And this suggests that absolutely nothing sticks to coatings of this type. And thanks to this, the spray paint that will be applied over such a coating can be easily removed with ordinary water.

The result of using such a coating can be called significant budget savings, since a damaged surface will not need to be repainted. Walls and other surfaces treated with anti-vandal coating will not only be resistant to paints. Even glue will not stick to them.

Graffiti washing off the walls

Such characteristics will make it possible to get rid of pasted ads or posters quite easily. And even if you try to leave on porch wall or at home, graffiti will be successful, such a pattern can always be easily erased.

It is worth noting that paints with anti-vandal characteristics could perfectly prove themselves even when used in the winter season. This coating has excellent resistance to low temperatures and precipitation.

Another advantage of its use can also be called the ability to protect surfaces from acid influences, soot and air pollution.

Benefits

Vandal resistant coatings are unique compositions that have certain advantages of use, among which are:

  • transparency (modern anti-vandal-type coatings are completely colorless and are therefore perfectly suitable for any interior or exterior decoration);
  • high resistance to solvents, which remove various contaminants and patterns;
  • preservation of all physical characteristics and attractive appearance throughout the entire period of operation;
  • the possibility of using synthetic detergents for surface cleaning;
  • the ability to quickly remove ads, posters and other objects without damaging the surface;
  • environmental friendliness;
  • ease and ease of use and application.

Paint for clean walls

The disadvantage of anti-vandal coatings can only be called a high cost. But this is quite successfully compensated by the lack of the need to repaint the surface damaged by contact with adhesives or stains.

Application Features

The procedure for applying anti-vandal paint, as well as the bearing of other paints, requires the obligatory preparation of the surface. The surface on which the paint will be applied or the wallpaper will be glued must be carefully prepared.

It is necessary to remove dirt and dust from it, to make it as smooth as possible. Whitewash and damaged or defective pieces and remnants of the old coating must be removed. Greasy, rusty or mildew stains must also be treated with special agents and removed from the surface.

It is worth noting that surfaces that crumble or crumble must be necessarily treated with an acrylic type primer. Otherwise, all anti-vandal paints and wallpapers will not be so durable.

The process of applying anti-vandal coatings is performed using simple and traditional painting tools:

  • roller;
  • brush;
  • spray gun.

You can apply the paint yourself. For maximum protection, two layers can be applied to the surface:

  • the first coating layer can be diluted by 5-10% with plain water;
  • the second, topcoat is applied with clean, undiluted paint.

Graffiti wall cleaning

All painting work should be carried out in conditions of temperature not less than +5 degrees. Immediately before applying the first layer, it is necessary to test the surface. Such actions help determine the level of absorption of the composition, as well as the correctness of its dilution.

Subsequent painting with the roller can be done slowly and leisurely. Sagging when using such a paint, as a rule, is excluded due to the high viscosity of the coating.

Already a couple of hours after applying the first layer, you can apply the second layer. The second stage of work should be carried out at a temperature of at least +20 degrees. Within a month, after applying the composition, the applied paint polymerizes and during all this time it is not worthwhile to expose the freshly treated surface to various loads.

Distinctive features of such wallpapers can be called increased wear resistance, as well as durability. Such wallpapers are made on the basis of textiles, paper or other materials, and on top they are covered with a special composition of vinyl. The presence of this material in the wallpaper makes them:

  • as resistant as possible to mechanical influences;
  • immune to temperatures;
  • resistant to acids and fats.
