2. "Steam Lance" - Chewing Gum Removal Process
This method of removal is the most effective, however due to the time-consuming nature of the removal process, it is also the most expensive. This chewing gum removal process works at lower pressure but utilises very high temperatures; these temperatures disintegrate the chewing gum deposits rather than blasting them off.
As this process utilities very low pressure no damage is caused to the surface substrate areas or grouting, plus no water over-spray damage should occur to surrounding property. This process can be used both effectively and safely within properly cordoned-off pedestrianised areas.
3. "Machine Scrubber / Hot-Water" - Chewing Gum Removal Process
Again using hot-water / steam, in combination with a heavy-duty rotary scrubbing machine, this particular type of gum removal process helps prevent unattractive "dapple effects" on surface substrates such as concrete, paving etc. This approach is chemical free, "environmentally friendly" and is ideal for cleaning pedestrianised areas, footpaths, block paving and other large flat surfaces. This method requires large-scale barrier restrictions and pedestrian cordons to be in-situ throughout the cleaning process.
