How Colorado Springs Schools Can Save Money by Using Mirror & Metal Shield to Prevent Tagging in Bathroom Stalls and on Bathroom mirrors

Graffiti. It looks unsightly, is expensive to repair, and makes parents and administration cringe. And for some reason it always shows up in school bathrooms. The main problem with graffiti is that once your school does find the money to invest in repairs, there’s no guarantee that nothing will happen to surfaces in the future. This creates a vicious cycle that’s just not conducive on a tight school budget. But that’s where anti-graffiti film comes in handy. Colorado Springs schools can use products like Mirror & Metal Shield to protect their bathrooms from being damaged by vandalism. Anti graffiti film works long-term, is reliable, tasteful, and, best of all, it’s affordable.

The Cost of Graffiti

Repairing damages from graffiti is an extremely burdensome expense that most schools can afford to incur. Deep scratching and acid etching can’t just be buffed out. And permanent marker is, well permanent. That means that most schools see no other option but to replace damaged fixtures. But installing entirely new furniture is expensive. And it’s not something that schools can afford every time a student or visitor decides to get a little carried away with expressing themselves.

Graffiti not only creates expenses for replacement, but it can also cost you your reputation. Graffiti is disturbing for students to see. And it can also give others the wrong message about your school. When your bathroom mirrors and stalls are scratched up or covered in gang tangs, drawings, or crude writing, it gives your school of feeling of being rundown and unsafe, and can also make administration look as if they’re negligent to these issues.

An Affordable Alternative to Replacement

Anti graffiti film is a thick, durable film that’s designed to cover up existing graffiti and provide defense against future damage. It can be printed to look exactly like the surface on which it’s applied, making it impossible to detect. Once it’s installed, anti graffiti film protects the underlying surfaces from being ruined by harsh scratching or etching. If the film becomes damaged, it can be easily removed and replaced by a professional, making the surface look brand new again. For this reason, anti graffiti film is a more affordable alternative to replacement and also a long term solution.
