Description - Getting Rid of Graffiti by Maurice J. Whitford

This unique practical reference offers step-by-step help in tackling graffiti. Common target locations are described, and the importance of identifying and understanding the nature of the surface before selecting the appropriate Graffiti Removal Method is emphasised. Protecting surfaces against graffiti attack is an increasingly attractive option, due to the effectiveness of modern chemical systems and the economic benefits of the approach, but selection of suitable materials and methods is essential. The book deals with the subject thoroughly. The spread of graffiti owes much to the development of new forms of aerosol and felt-tip markers. Solvents and other chemical systems have been developed to deal with these, but many of them need careful handling and use to avoid causing hazards to operatives. Getting Rid of Graffiti lays special emphasis on safe working practices to minimise risk and takes account of current UK Health and Safety at Work and COSHH legislation. Addresses of relevant sources of information and specialist materials and equipment are given in an appendix.
The whole book is based on the first hand experience of London Underground Ltd in research and development into graffiti materials and protective coatings, methods and equipment, site trials, training of staff and development of the Graffiti Removal Methods.
