That can be good for the cops to go on.  |  IP: Logged Galen Murphy-Fahlgren Master Film Handler Posts: 405 From: Canton, MI, USA Registered: Oct 2007 posted 08-05-2008 10:43 AM                     I've been saying that too for almost a year.  |  IP: Logged Phil Blake Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 558 From: esperance western australia Registered: Nov 2003 posted 08-09-2008 10:39 AM                        I heard somewhere some time ago that red and orange are not attractive colours to graffiti people , I thought this was a load of rubbish but strangley our cubical doors in the toilets at the old drive in were orange , 20 years went by and no one ever drew on them ???? believe it or not.  |  IP: Logged Allison Parsons Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 630 From: East Peoria, IL Registered: Oct 2004 posted 08-09-2008 10:56 AM                        quote: Dominic Espinosa someone etches the coating Are they etching it via etching cream, or just digging into the glass with a sharp point?  |  IP: Logged Dominic Espinosa Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1172 From: California, U.S.A. Registered: Jan 2004 posted 08-12-2008 07:14 PM                     Thus far no chemicals have been used -- this is what baffles me. If people are tearing up the coating why the F are we coating the windows? Do people really walk around with the tools to do this?  |  IP: Logged Frank Angel Film God Posts: 5305 From: Brooklyn NY USA Registered: Dec 1999 posted 08-13-2008 08:49 AM                        Yes they do, Dominic, and they need to have their fingers broken....in 3 places -- that's the very effective Iranian graffiti prevention. Not only are cameras effective, but we have a few sensors that detect breaking sounds -- glass, percussive impact sound of metal or anything getting hit hard. It's not perfect and there can be some false triggers, but it can't hurt to investigate, even if you find nothing untoward is happening.  |  IP: Logged Bill Enos Film God Posts: 2081 From: Richmond, Virginia, USA Registered: Apr 2000 posted 08-14-2008 07:49 PM                     On an inspection by the city health dept. 3 years ago they said we're required to have hand wipes of some sort, hand soap, hot water--110 degrees F, toilets must flush, sink drains must flow. NO mention of toilet paper being required. Want a secure parking lot? Try WalMart, the one about 3 miles from home has 12 cameras covering the lot, every square inch of the store is covered too. They claim every camera is recorded 24/7. We remove or paint over all graffiti as soon as it's discovered, we're fortunate that we have very little problem with it though.  |  IP: Logged Tim Reed Better Projection Pays Posts: 5246 From: Northampton, PA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 08-16-2008 09:32 AM                        |  IP: Logged
