What Graffiti Films Actually Do For Surfaces On Los Angeles Commercial Spaces

When you hear the words “anti-graffiti films” it is perfectly natural to think of something that is used for buildings and businesses in “bad” parts of town or where glass, metal, and mirror surfaces are hard to monitor and open to tagging.  Of course, you wouldn’t be wrong about this since anti-graffiti films are an important part in keeping these areas protected from vandals. But as it turns out, these types of protective films are also key to keeping surfaces in very visible, highly trafficked areas clear of both graffiti and other marks and used to:

  • protect from scratches
  • protect from everyday wear and tear
  • protect from smash and grab crimes
  • keep high profile surfaces looking clear, clean and new

Read on below to find out more about these helpful and ubiquitous these clear protective films really are.

Where Anti-graffiti Window Films Are Used (It Might Surprise You)

As mentioned above–anti-graffiti films are everywhere here in Los Angeles and you probably pass or interact with them every single day that you are out and about and don’t even know it.  This is because these surface films are clear and totally invisible to the naked eye. As such they are often found in places like windows and bathroom mirrors but are equally as common:

 

  • On Display Cases
  • On Road Signs
  • On Elevators And Escalators
  • Inside Bus Shelters
  • Protecting Glass Sneeze Guards
  • On Kiosks and ATM Machines

These types of places that serve the public are where these films are frequently used and extra helpful.  While it is true these areas could be targets of graffiti, believe it or not, the greater threat is from the copious wear and tear they get just from normal use over time.  Anti-graffiti films, as it were, are a way to provide optically clear protection against this daily wear and tear but strong enough to also protect from intentional graffiti as well.   From store windows to elevator doors, these fantastic films are helping to keep non-porous surfaces all over Los Angeles clean and beautiful while giving property managers a cost-effective and time-saving way to remove marks of all sorts including spray paint, acid-graffiti, abrasions, scratches, dirt, and grime.  One of the best features of these films is that they are easily cleaned with simple household cleaning products when marked and when they get too scratched up and start looking ugly–they are easily and cost-effectively replaced, often, in as little as one day!
