How to Remove Graffiti from Fibreglass

How to Remove Graffiti from Fibreglass

If a fibreglass surface has been defaced, returning it to its previous state can present a real problem. But, with the right product, removing graffiti from fibreglass can be a quick and easy job.

Removing paint from fibreglass surfaces, such as a boat hull, requires a delicate approach. Heating and sanding, while typical choices for graffiti removal on surfaces such as wood and metal, may not be appropriate for a fibreglass surface. Instead, chemical paint strippers are more suitable for removing graffiti without leaving any lasting damage.

To remove graffiti from a fibreglass surface, you need to apply a chemical paint stripper, wait for it to take effect, and then use an appropriate tool to remove the paint and any leftover solution. One thing to be aware of when choosing a paint stripper is its effectiveness on certain surfaces. You want to select a paint removal product that works powerfully on any surface you apply it to. But crucially, without damaging the surface below.

It can be a risky game finding a product that can achieve full paint-removal effectiveness and that restores your fibreglass back to its former glory. But there’s one product that you can be sure will do the job to the highest degree and safely too. Peel Tec works with the same clinical efficiency on almost all surfaces, meaning it will remove paint – and only paint – leaving whatever surface it’s used on unharmed.

This is why so many tradespeople choose Peel Tec for their paint removal projects. Peel Tec removes paint from wood, metal, stone, and many other materials, quickly and with ease. It’s the number one choice for graffiti removal as it’s incredibly versatile and makes light work of this traditionally stubborn job.

Remove graffiti from fibreglass with ease

To remove graffiti from fibreglass with Peel Tec, all it takes is a straightforward process. First, take your can of Peel Tec and shake it well. Next, target the graffiti with the unique nozzle and press down firmly. The gel-like solution should distribute evenly over the desired area and get to work instantly. For best results, we advise waiting up to ten minutes before removing the residue. Just sit back and watch the paint bubble and begin to peel away! Peel Tec does the hard work for you, eliminating any need for excessive exertion.
After Peel Tec has worked its magic, take a tool appropriate for removing the paint and solution residue. For fibreglass surfaces, you may want to choose something soft, like a cloth, rather than a sharp-edged scraper, to further prevent any scratching or harm to your surface. You should be able to wipe away the graffiti with ease. For tough graffiti stains, you can repeat the process as necessary, or alternatively, use a jet washer to clean away any excess paint or gel solution. Both methods are completely safe for your fibreglass surface.
