Glass Graffiti Removal - Sydney

January 8, 2026

Glass Graffiti can significantly undermine the appearance and credibility of a commercial property. For property owners and managers, the issue extends beyond paint vandalism—modern glass graffiti increasingly involves scratching, glass cutting, and acid etching, which permanently damage windows, shopfronts, and balustrades.



Glass Polishing by Advanced Glass Scratch Repair can provide professional graffiti removal services across the Sydney Metropolitan, restoring damaged glass to near-new clarity without the need for replacement. 


The True Cost of Glass Graffiti


While graffiti is often associated with spray paint or markers, the most severe damage now comes from acid etching and physical scratching. Vandals use sharp tools or chemical agents to etch glass surfaces, leaving marks that cannot be removed with standard cleaning products.


This type of damage is commonly found on:


  • Retail shopfronts, cafés, and hospitality venues
  • Apartment buildings and lobby entrances
  • Council and public infrastructure, including transport shelters and amenities
  • Balustrades and glazing
  • Commercial offices and real estate agencies


In many cases, damaged glass remains untreated for extended periods because property owners assume replacement is the only solution. In reality, professional restoration is often a highly effective and significantly more economical alternative.


Restore Rather Than Replace


At Advanced Glass Scratch Repair, we use a professional glass polishing system to remove graffiti and surface damage without compromising the integrity or appearance of the glass. Our methods are specifically designed for commercial-grade graffiti, including acid etching and deep scratching.


We can safely address:


  • Scratched graffiti caused by knives, glass cutters, or similar tools
  • Acid etching cream damage
  • Grinder burn marks and weld spatter
  • Stubborn adhesive residue from stickers and signage


All work is completed on-site, with no need to remove or dismantle glazing. Our finished results meet or exceed the visual acceptability standards outlined in AS 4667 for architectural and commercial glass.
