easy-off | Stagecoach Supertram

easy-off safe graffiti remover keeps the Supertram system graffiti & fly poster free. easy-off can be applied to any surface & is a fantastic all purpose cleaner for all types of public transport.

When Yorkshires state of the art Tram system started to get hit by graffiti vandals easy-off graffiti removal product was found to be streets ahead of the others.

Stagecoach Supertram serves the city of Sheffield with 3 light rail routes covering 29Km and linking 5 park and ride sites with the busy City centre. Each tram can easily transport up to 250 passengers and the whole network handles thousands of people every single day.

Understandably both the City of Sheffield and Stagecoach Supertram are proud of their network and maintain it to the very highest of standards but as with all public transport graffiti can often be a problem.

Stagecoaches approach to the graffiti problem was admirable and a zero tolerance approach was adopted from day one. To ensure total and economically viable graffiti removal always took place easy-on anti graffiti coating was applied to all of the “hotspot” areas. Tram stops, Sign posts, Lamp posts and bridges were all given the permanent easy-on treatment enabling subsequent graffiti removal to be done in a quick and environmentally friendly way using mild and safe easy-off graffiti remover.

Since the initial treatment back in 2001 there has been no need to reapply any of the easy-on coating despite it being cleaned 100’s of times in some areas. The stores department keeps a stock of easy-off and when graffiti appears operatives can be sent out to instantly remove it. This no nonsense rapid response approach keeps the tram network looking great at all times and enables Stagecoach Supertram to manage the graffiti problem and not have the graffiti problem manage them.
