ABSTRACT:
An anti-graffiti apparatus is for deterring taggers from performing tagging on private or public property such as freeway sound walls, freeway signs, tunnels, bridges, buildings, and other similar structures. The anti-graffiti apparatus is mounted adjacent to the top of the building wall. The anti-graffiti apparatus has a protective armor which protects the components of the anti-graffiti apparatus. The anti-graffiti apparatus has at least one sensor which is electrically connected to at least one in-line water valve which in turn is connected to a series of sprinkler spray heads which will spray water or other graffiti removing substances onto the walls. The sensor is mounted within the protective armor and directed down towards the ground and is adjacent the side wall of the building where graffiti is likely to occur. When someone comes adjacent the wall anywhere along the cover range of the sensor, the motion of the person will automatically activate the sensor which will in turn open the valve to cause the sprinkler heads to spray water or other anti-graffiti substance onto the walls and onto the tagger.
