Provides for the removal of graffiti and a subsequent protective treatment, not altering the historical patinas and age of architectural buildings and monuments.
GRAFFITI REMOVER
Graffiti can be removed by applying the Graffiti Remover, allowing the affected surface area to be covered with plastic wrap until the Graffiti Remover weakens the offensive solvent markers and enamel paints. Then using pressurized hot water and brushes to gently remove the damages caused by vandals, the original historical or mineral surface is restored. Synthetic paints, latex or other non permanent painted surfaces can be affected or removed in the process of cleaning the building surfaces. Original stone and mineral surfaces, such as brick and concrete, will not be affected by Graffiti Remover.
In a historical first, San Marco using their scientists and material experts, collaborating with world renown restoration experts, with the City of Venice and the Superintendent for Historical Monuments, created a restoration and protection system that was Eco Freindly and could be used anywhere in the world to protect Unesco World Heritage Sites and Buildings.
San Marco funded the prestigious restoration project to clean graffiti and protect the colonnades from future graffiti in Piazza San Marco, opposite the Basilica dedicated to the patron saint of Venezia, reknown throughout the World.

ISOGRAFF
ANTI-GRAFFITI PROTECTION
ECO Compatible
Provides for the protection against graffiti, smog deposits, reduces water absorption and dirt buildup, does not alter the breathability of the surfaces, and facilitates removing graffiti by simple use of hot steam.
In 2007 alone, the EEC estimated the damages to historical buildings in Europe by graffiti artists and vandals was in the upward costs of 10 billion Euros. Removing solvent markers and paints from buildings that do not have anit-graffiti protecton is a very costly business that involves experts in restoration to minimize the damages to building surfaces by using solvents and cleaners that do not damage exterior sufaces. Often times offensive wall writings are simply painted over and cause further damage to important structures and complicate restoration. City center pedestrians and bypassers will notice the attempts by property owners to camaflouge graffiti on important buildings.
San Marco offers city governments, States, the Federal Government, and property owners an inexpensive alternative to protect buildings and monuments against graffiti and smog with an invisible protective coat of Isograff that is non caustic, eco compatibile, and rinses off with hot steam water.
