Monument protected building in Berlin

This monument base was polluted for a long time with graffiti. Basically, you could say: the longer graffiti stays on a surface, the harder it is to remove it. Especially on the south side, graffiti tends to burn into the object.

When this happens, it is nearly impossible to remove the paint without any leftovers. For cleaning this monument, the fine blasting medium Jetglass SG 150 was used. The surface of the natural stone has not been harmed during the cleanup.

The very busy street "Heerstrasse" with many pedestrians, was not a problem during the cleaning of listed monuments. Without blocking streets and sidewalks, the jobs was done quick and easily. Other blasting methods such as sandblasting or dry-ice blasting would only be used with great effort, extensive barriers and substantial followup work. The cost of the graffiti removal and the risk of damage are much higher that way than using the cleaning equipment Tornado ACS.
