Sign Graffiti Removal

What This Service Involves

Traffic and regulatory signs carry retroreflective sheeting that aggressive cleaning can permanently dull, creating a safety and MUTCD compliance concern. Our crews use sign-safe solvents and techniques that lift paint and marker while preserving nighttime reflectivity. Signs too damaged to restore are flagged for replacement so they do not remain non-compliant. All work is logged by sign location and type for your traffic division's records.

Benefits

Reflectivity-preserving methods that protect nighttime legibility; MUTCD-aware handling of regulatory signage; flagging of signs that require replacement rather than cleaning; location-based logs for the traffic division; reduced risk of premature sign replacement

Our Process

1) Identify tagged signs from reports or field patrol; 2) Test a sign-safe removal method on the sheeting; 3) Remove the graffiti while protecting the reflective face; 4) Log the location and flag any sign needing replacement

What Affects the Cost

Number and size of affected signs; sheeting type and sensitivity; roadway traffic control needs during work; proportion of signs requiring replacement; travel across the sign network

Best Time of Year

Removal continues throughout the year, with traffic-control setups planned around daylight and lower-volume traffic periods.
