Gel control for vertical tags on metal, signs, and doors - fast removal without runoff.
Tags on smooth, vertical surfaces are a time sink. Thin liquids flash and run, pulling pigment down the panel and creating new cleanup. Hot strippers haze OEM finishes; weak detergents just smear. Crews burn time chasing drips and ghosting on traffic signs, powder-coated boxes, painted metal doors, and coated walls. Heat shortens dwell, cold stalls performance, and harsh odor isn’t acceptable indoors. Every extra pass adds labor, ladder time, and callbacks.
SaraWest Smooth Surface Graffiti Gel answers with controllable cling and balanced solvency. The shear-thickened gel stays where you put it, slowing evaporation and maximizing contact on vertical substrates. A non‑chlorinated solvent system and rinse‑aiding surfactants cut alkyd and acrylic enamels, marker inks, and typical rattle‑can pigments without undercutting sound OEM coatings when used as directed. It wipes and rinses clean, limiting ghosting and rework. Low odor supports indoor or curbside work, and the gel’s dwell stays predictable across real-world temperatures.
Formulated, batched, and filled in our 30,000 sq ft Pampa, Texas plant, backed by nearly 40 years of formulation experience. Each run is QC-checked with retains for traceability. Private-label ready with your brand, compliant copy, and case labeling. Available in 33.8 oz, 1.3 gal, and 5 gal fills. Factory-direct, consistent lead times, and documentation on hand for procurement.
- High-cling gel controls runoff on doors, cabinets, and signs.
- Non‑chlorinated, low‑odor solvent blend for indoor or curbside work.
- Balanced solvency removes alkyd, acrylic, enamel, and marker inks.
- Rinses clean with water, limiting ghosting on durable OEM finishes.
- Predictable dwell from 50-95°F; resists drying in wind and heat.
- White‑label ready with tuned viscosity, tint, and fragrance options.
PPE: chemical‑resistant gloves and eye protection. Test in an inconspicuous spot. Protect adjacent surfaces below the work area to catch any softened paint.
Ready to use. Do not dilute. Apply a uniform film by brush, foam pad, or squeeze bottle spreader. Target full coverage without runs. Typical dwell is 2-10 minutes; do not allow to dry. Agitate with a nylon brush or non‑scratch pad, then wipe residue. Rinse with clean water and inspect. Repeat if necessary for heavy, multi‑layer tags.
Temperature and dwell: 50-65°F, allow 5-15 minutes; 65-85°F, 3-8 minutes; above 85°F, shorten dwell and keep the gel wet - shade the area or mist lightly with water. Reduce dwell on sensitive finishes.
Substrate guidance: Designed for painted metals, OEM baked enamels, powder coat, and 2K urethanes. Not recommended for bare or polished aluminum, acrylic, or polycarbonate; may soften decals and low‑grade single‑stage paints. Always spot test. Do not use on porous masonry.
- Cuts chemical runoff on verticals by 60-80% versus liquid removers.
- Removes fresh marker and dye tags in 1-3 minutes, typically one pass.
- Clears typical enamel spray paint in 5-10 minutes with minimal ghosting.
- Reduces rework passes by 30-50% on smooth OEM finishes.
- Supports indoor use with low odor, reducing area disruption time.
