Graffiti Shield is a manufacturing converter of anti-graffiti films and surface protection films. They specialize in creating custom anti-graffiti shields, or sacrificial films, to protect new surfaces or cover up existing vandalization. Most of their customers fall in the mass transit industry and are located in metropolis areas such as Los Angeles, Seattle and New York. In addition, they install anti-graffiti films in commercial properties for the protection of elevators and escalators. Graffiti Shield’s headquarters, located in Anaheim, California, currently operates with two SP2000 100w to create customized surface protection solutions.

Initially, Graffiti Shield reached out to multiple different laser manufacturers only to find they were unable to provide a solution that addressed their size requirements and desired safety features. After experiencing the capabilities of the other systems, Graffiti Shield contacted the Trotec sales representative in the area, Gary Sheriff. After speaking at length with Trotec and receiving a product demonstration, Graffiti Shield found that the SP2000 was able to increase cut quality to meet OEM standards, accommodate anti-graffiti shield sheet sizes for large transit windows AND operate as a safety class 2 laser – no other laser manufacturer could present all of these features in a single-source solution. Since purchasing their laser, Graffiti Shield has been able to accept a wider range of custom jobs because of the machine’s size, precision and speed. Because of this influx of custom jobs, Graffiti Shield bought a second SP2000 shortly after and plans to expand with the addition of a SP3000 in the near future.
