Question: Does anyone have the do’s or don’ts for removing pencil marks on restrooms? I haven’t found graffiti removers that work.
Answers:
- I carry a large pink eraser in the truck with me and just rub it off.
- I’ve had good luck with the Sunrise Environmental products for removing pencil marks.
- Tagaway Graffiti Remover wipes them clean off, along with a bunch of other things. Unfortunately it doesn’t remove the markers that embed themselves in the plastic.
- The giant eraser idea isn’t that great because if the eraser is dirty it will wipe that grime on the plastic or it leaves a residue.
- We just tried the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. I haven’t tried pencil myself; one of my employees said it took it off. I know they work great for strap marks and hard water stains.
- Not sure about pencil marks, but oven cleaner has taken off our marker-type graffiti and other “messages.”
- Toico sells the magic sponges. They work great for pencil and will remove Sharpie shadow if done promptly.
- We use Goof Off spray. It works great, even on the tough graffiti inks. Just spray, wipe off and give a good rinse.
