1、Designation: D 7089 06Standard Practice forDetermination of the Effectiveness of Anti-Graffiti Coatingfor Use on Concrete, Masonry and Natural Stone Surfacesby Pressure Washing1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 7089; the number immediately following the designation indicates the

2、year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers a basic method for evaluating

3、theperformance of anti-graffiti products on mineral building sub-strates by a series of increasingly abrasive cleaning methods.The anti-graffiti materials are applied to a series of concrete,masonry and natural stone specimens for evaluation. Graffitiresistance is based on how a defined set of marki

4、ngs areremoved by a designated set of cleaning techniques.1.2 This practice also defines a procedure to evaluate graffitiremoval after re-marking with subsequent re-cleaning. It doesnot address the re-treatment of substrates after a material is nolonger graffiti resistant.1.3 The values stated in SI

5、 units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health

Summary of Practice4.1 Spray paints and markers are applied to a ser

9、ies ofconcrete, masonry and natural stone test panels pre-treatedwith the product(s) to be evaluated. The paint(s) and mark(ers)are removed using a series of commercial building cleaningmethods which begin with the least aggressive method, high-pressure water wash with a commercial graffiti cleaner

10、andproceed to increasingly aggressive cleaning methods such ashigh-pressure hot water wash and high-pressure sodium bicar-bonate wash.5. Significance and Use5.1 Graffiti on buildings and structures is a significantproblem in various regions across the country. A variety ofcoatings have been develope

11、d to be either resistant to theapplication of paints/marker or to aid in their removal. Thisstandard practice describes a procedure for evaluating theeffectiveness of anti-graffiti coatings applied to various con-crete, masonry and natural stone substrates. It does not addressgraffiti removal on met

12、al or any other non-mineral substrate.5.2 This practice only addresses graffiti removal on sub-strates in a laboratory environment, that have not been exposedto either natural or artificial weathering. Specification D 6578describes a method for graffiti removal after both natural andartificial weath

Apparatus6.1 Commercial based graffiti removers used for concrete,masonry and stone surfaces are utilized to remove graffiti.Follow manufacturer guidelines for application instructions.This is followed by high-pressure cold water washer to cleanthe substrate.1This practice is under the juri
