Product Description

Transgel Paint and Graffiti Remover is a highly effective, safe, and biodegradable solution designed to tackle older, hardened, and sun-baked spray paint. It works seamlessly on a variety of surfaces, including masonry, metal, asphalt, and timber. Recommended for the removal of paint and/or graffiti from road surfaces (asphalt, tarmac, bitumen) without degradation of the road surface. It can also be used on unpainted metals and pre-painted steel fencing.

Transgel will remove hard sun-baked paints from trains left in yards, as well as thicker spray can paint and acrylic murals from buildings. Transgel is particularly useful for removing old and hardened white and yellow paint.

Features & Benefits

  • Advanced Formulation: Fast-acting and non-damaging, Transgel efficiently removes hardened paints and acrylic murals from various surfaces.
  • Versatile Use: Suitable for porous cinderblock, smooth paintwork, powder coat, and asphalt surfaces.
  • Environmentally Friendly: Virtually odorless and non-toxic, promoting environmentally responsible paint & graffiti removal.
  • Gel Consistency: Maintains wetness for extended dwell times, ensuring effective removal of thicker, older paints.

Product Use Instructions

For typical graffiti and paint removal jobs, apply the remover thickly and allow it to dwell for at least 20 minutes. In some cases, longer dwell times may be necessary. If the graffiti is very thick, agitate with a stiff nylon brush or scrub pad. Rinse the area with high-pressure water, ideally using a hot water pressure washer, for the best results.

For older, multilayered graffiti and acrylic paint, Transgel can be left to work overnight, as it generally will not dry out. This should only be done if it is safe to do so.

After removing the thick layers of paint and/or graffiti from porous surfaces with Transgel, use Bare Brick Stone and Masonry Graffiti Remover to remove any remaining paint residue.

Coverage Guidelines

One gallon of Transgel Paint and Graffiti Remover covers approximately:

  • 80–100 sq. ft. per gallon on soft, absorbent surfaces such as sandstone or limestone, or for thicker paint layers requiring multiple coats.
  • 150 sq. ft. per gallon (across three coats) on concrete.

Exact coverage varies depending on the porosity of the surface, material, and the type of paint being removed.
