Gum & Graffiti Removal

Discover the transformative power of pressure washing for all your gum and graffiti challenges. Our cutting-edge techniques safely remove these blemishes, leaving surfaces looking new.

Graffiti, while sometimes seen as a form of urban art, can often be unwanted and considered vandalism, especially when it defaces public or private properties. The task of graffiti removal requires a delicate balance of power washing techniques and the use of the right chemicals to ensure that the original surface is not harmed. For commercial properties, maintaining cleanliness is crucial, especially in high-traffic areas. 

Using the right Chemicals

The success of both gum and graffiti removal heavily relies on the selection and use of the right chemicals. These chemicals are designed to break down the compounds found in gum and the various paints used in graffiti, making them easier to remove with power washing. Turbo wash has an extensive history of testing and identifying the most effective, environmentally safe chemicals that ensure thorough cleaning without damaging the underlying surface or posing health risks to the public and the environment.

Why is gum so hard to clean

Gum removal poses a unique challenge, largely due to the science behind how these substances adhere to surfaces. For instance, chewing gum is made from synthetic rubber bases that, once chewed and discarded, becomes sticky and pliable at body temperature. When gum is pressed onto a surface, it seeps into the microscopic pores and crevices, creating a bond that is resistant to simple cleaning methods. One particularly effective method involves the use of hot water power washing, a technique that not only addresses the visible nuisance of gum but also the underlying challenge posed by its stubborn adherence. The key to this method’s success lies in the thermal properties of gum and its interaction with hot water, which is applied under high pressure.
