OTHER PAINT & GRAFFITI REMOVAL
The following products have been tested
on Nichiha panels* to aid in the removal of
graffiti type markings. These citrus-based
products can also be used for basic panel
cleaning purposes. The panels were sprayed
with an indoor/outdoor aerosol spray paint
and left to dry overnight, and then the paint
removal products were applied following the
manufacturer’s guidelines.
All products tested achieved good results.
However, the outcome may vary depending on
the amount of paint that needs to be removed.
Be sure to follow all manufacturer’s guidelines
and first test in an inconspicuous area before
working on a larger area.
Do not use these cleaners with
Illumination Series.
*Nichiha is not liable for any damage caused

REPAIRING MINOR DAMAGE
Isolate the blemish with a low adhesive tape
such as painters tape. This will help protect
the surrounding area of the panel and aide in
creating a more polished, clean repair.
Lightly brush/abrade the surface within the
taped off area in order to remove any loose
material.
Carefully fill and smooth the resultant prepped
area with cementitious patching material such
as MH Ready Patch. Allow to dry/cure fully.
Gently smooth the patch and then apply
touch-up paint to the affected area. Allow
touch-up paint to dry and remove the tape.
