What are Graffiti Action Days?
Graffiti Action Days are innovative volunteer graffiti removal events that empower the community to reclaim their neighborhood from the visual blight of graffiti. They can make a significant and tangible impact on the appearance of a targeted commercial corridor, park or neighborhood plagued by graffiti.
Graffiti Action Days are typically spearheaded by Municipalities,
Neighborhood Organizations, Schools, Aldermanic Offices, Chambers of Commerce,
or Block Clubs.
Volunteers can quickly and safely remove hundreds of graffiti tags armed with the highly-innovative, highly-effective, highly-green SoSafe Graffiti Removers. During the two-hour events, volunteers report personally cleaning an estimated 30 to 50 tags.
The SoSafe graffiti removers are highly environmentally-friendly and therefore very safe to work with. They are fast acting and can completely remove most tags within a couple minutes without impacting the underlying
surface.
Because the SoSafe Graffiti Removers are safe enough to be used by non-professionals, a group of volunteers armed with spray bottles, sponges and buckets of water can effectively remove the majority of the graffiti in a commercial corridor on non-porous surfaces including signs, mailboxes, newspaper boxes, meter boxes and lamp posts.
