Protecting glass store-front from vandals is a high priority for business owners. Millions of dollars of glass damage are reported each year from graffiti alone. The cost of replacing windows on storefronts has become too costly for many business owners to change out each time an irresponsible individual(s) decides to leave a mark on the glass. Storefront windows are important for aesthetics purposes and because of glass replacement costs, many business owners and landlords do not want to replace it. This will, in turn, negatively affect the image of the business and property. Tint World’s solution is anti-graffiti film.

It is a thick, clear film that is applied onto the exterior of the glass and can be replaced at a fraction of the cost of a new window pane. The 4-6 mils film has an advanced scratch resistant coating applied from the manufacturer and can be cleaned with conventional glass cleaners. The storefront is an important business promotional tool to attract customers by professionally presenting products behind the glass. However, harmful UV rays can damage these wares from such exposure. An added benefit to Tint World’s Graffiti film is the blockage of 99% of UV rays, which provides an invisible barrier protecting the business’s wares from fading. In case of breakage, the film holds the shards of glass together, leaving a large blanket of glass held in one piece which makes it easier to clean and dispose of.

Anti-graffiti films are available to eliminate expensive glass-etching vandalism or damage to glass in high traffic areas. These films are thick enough to protect glass from most forms of vandalism or accidental damage yet they are clear and virtually invisible when mounted on the outside surface glass or Plexiglass. When a vandal scratches on the window or uses acid etching chemicals to deface the window it won’t be permanent. They are actually damaging the film, not the glass. We can then simply replace the film for a fraction of the cost of glass replacement.
