Graffiti is a plague on commercial locations here in Los Angeles.  Locations from the transit stations to commercial retails spots. You see marks on every part of a building: bathroom mirrors, elevator doors, and glass windows.  Worse than being ugly—graffiti is expensive to remove. This is why Graffiti Shield makes a variety of sacrificial surfaces to go over it in the form of film. This cost-effective solution is also easy to install.  From glass to mirrors, metal and more Graffiti Shield films are making Los Angeles a more beautiful place to live—and saving its citizens money too.

Types of Graffiti Abatement Films From Graffiti Shield

To match any surface on your LA building that is affected by vandalism, Graffiti Shield makes their film products in different, matching finishes.

Metal Shield: Elevator graffiti is one of the most common.  It is also one of the most expensive. When you use a metal shield to cover over the damage–you save quite a bit of time and money.  The film can be applied in one day and costs about 1/10th of the price of sanding.

Mirror Shield: Once a mirror is scratched or marked it is never the same again.  The damage cannot be sanded out. This means the whole mirror must be replaced. With Graffiti Shield Mirror Shield film, you don’t need to get a new mirror.  The surface is simply covered over with a mirrored film that completely covers the damage and costs less than replacing the entire fixture.

Glass Shield: Glass windows are a big target for vandals.  Which is horrible because replacing entire panes of glass is expensive.  Sanding off the damage leaves the glass marked and looking bad. Applying Glass Shield to your windows today prevents future damage and reduces the costs associated with fixing them. When graffiti occurs, the film is peeled off and replaced for a fraction of the cost of glass replacement.

Custom Shield: Some flat surfaces are not glass, metal or mirrored and need special solutions to cover graffiti. If you have a flat surface you think may need protection, Graffiti Shield has custom solutions for you.
