Painting Over Graffiti
When graffiti is on a painted surface, the best course of action is to cover it with paint.
- Paint over graffiti as soon as possible.
- Report the graffiti online or to Minneapolis 311. Homeowners and reporters of graffiti are encouraged to take photographs of the graffiti and email them to minneapolis311@minneapolismn.gov
- First, put a primer coat over the graffiti. Follow up with a coat of exterior paint.
- The City of Minneapolis has the right to abate graffiti without notice to the property owner.
