Bare Brick Stone & Masonry Graffiti Remover (BBSM) is a highly effective, economical, and biodegradable graffiti remover for all types of spray can paints, oil/latex/water-based paint overspray, paint spill stains, grease, grime, smoke, and oil stains, as well as other marks on porous brick, stone, and concrete surfaces including cinder block, split face block, and exposed aggregate.

Product Use Instructions

BBSM Graffiti Remover is applied to the surface with a nylon brush, broom, or pump-up sprayer, 3 times at 3-minute intervals, liberally flooding the graffiti/stain with the product. For typical graffiti, approximately three minutes after the final application, rinse using a hot or cold pressure washer (hot is best) at low pressure. If one is not available then a stiff, nylon brush and bucket of water may suffice.

Agitation, as you apply this product, can be of great assistance. Continued experience with the product will enable the user to judge how many applications are necessary for varying surfaces and particular spray cans. On older/thicker graffiti, patience is the key. Keep the graffiti wet with the product, as long as possible before rinsing.

Remember, a pressure washer in this instance is used as a quick release rinse of the dissolved graffiti, and not the primary means of cleaning. Ideally use 1500 - 2000 psi with a 15º or 25º fan jet at about 6 inches from the surface. When rinsing dissolved graffiti with a pressure washer try to remove a LITTLE of the graffiti from the bottom of the tag without wetting the whole area. If satisfied, then proceed to full scale. Wash the whole area from top to bottom.

Remember that if the remover has not done its job, no amount of ‘blasting’ will fix the problem. Failures are usually a result of not flood coating adequately and not leaving the product on long enough and cannot be resolved by blasting too close or at higher pressures. Do not use ‘turbo’ type nozzles, or blast too close, as you may cause damage and will possibly only remove a small percentage more.

Coverage Guidelines 1 gallon of BBSM will remove approx.:

• 200 sq ft of typical graffiti on concrete, brick, block, or masonry surfaces.

• 80 sq ft on sandstone, limestone, and other soft absorbent surfaces (per 3 flood coat applications).

• up to 1000 sq ft per gallon on painted/coated surfaces. Exact coverage varies depending on the type of stain and the porosity of surface material.
