Films : Anti-Graffiti
The 3M Company
has introduced a new line of
window films for commercial
buildings to help combat the
costly damage caused by graffiti.
The etching, scratching, painting,
and marking of glass is an expensive
and rapidly growing problem
worldwide. Anti-graffiti films
offer building owners and managers
the opportunity to minimize
the $12 billion annual cost
associated with graffiti abatement
in the United States.
When applied to surfaces that
vandals often target, such as
interior and exterior windows,
mirrors, and other glass, the
film provides protection by
taking the brunt of graffiti
damage. Paints, permanent markings,
and other stains can be easily
removed from the protective
surface without the use of harsh
chemicals. That is because film
damaged by etching or scratching
can be easily removed and replaced
with new film. Using the protective
film also eliminates the expense
of conventional graffiti cleanup
or the even costlier total replacement
of graffiti-damaged equipment
or property.
This optically clear, distortion-free
film can be applied to windows,
mirrors, and other surfaces.
In addition to resisting damage
from glass-etching solutions
used by vandals, these films
also offer other benefits by
blocking heat, glare, and 99%
of damaging UV rays.
