Anti-Graffiti Film
An optically clear sacrificial film that takes the damage instead of your storefront glass — peel, replace, and your window looks brand new.
Quick Answer
Anti-graffiti window film is a clear 4–6 mil polyester sacrificial layer applied over storefront glass. When the film is acid-etched, scratched, or tagged, it is peeled off and replaced — saving the cost of replacing the glass itself ($1,500–$8,000+ per pane in LA). Anti-graffiti film costs $8–$12 per square foot installed in Los Angeles.
Replacing a single tagged or acid-etched storefront pane in Los Angeles can cost $1,500–$8,000+ depending on glass size, IGU type, and whether tempered safety glass is required by code.
An anti-graffiti film install over the same pane is typically $200–$800. When the film gets damaged, it is removed and a fresh film installed — usually the same day — for a fraction of glass replacement cost.
Spray paint and marker tagging, acid etching (the most expensive damage on LA storefronts), key/glass scratching, sticker residue, and minor impact scuffs. Optically clear — no change to the storefront's appearance.
