trigger_paint_cleanser is a brush entity available in Portal 2 Portal 2.

English (en)
Edit

It is a trigger volume that destroys gel blobs which pass through it, and removes gel from objects such as cubes. In Portal 2: Community Edition Portal 2: Community Edition , it will additionally reset the paint gun's gel types when the player passes through it.

Note.pngNote:It does not remove gel applied to brushes, or block gel from streaking past it.
Icon-Bug.pngBug:In Portal 2, the entity will always remove gel from physics objects regardless of the Physics Objects flag.
Fix: This has been fixed in P2CE, in addition to respecting the Clients flag for paint gun resetting.
Note.pngNote:Gel needs to have Paint in Map set to True in worldspawn before applying on surfaces. Maps that do not use gel can save significant resources by avoiding gel code.

Base:
AddContext <string>
Adds to the entity's list of response contexts. See Context.
AddOutput <string>
Assigns a new keyvalue/output on this entity. For keyvalues, some rely on extra necessary code to be ran and won't work if its simply just changed through this input. There is a strict format that must be followed:
// Format of changing KeyValues: "AddOutput [key] [value]"
//// Raw text:
"OnUser1" "!self,AddOutput,targetname new_name"

// Format of adding an Output: "AddOutput {targetname}:{inputname}:{parameter}:{delay}:{max times to fire, -1 means infinite}"
//// Raw text:
"OnUser1" "!self,AddOutput,OnUser1:SetParent:!activator:0.0:-1"
// Arguments can be left blank, but the empty blank should still be contained.
//// Raw text:
"OnUser1" "!self,AddOutput,OnUser1:ClearParent::0.0:-1"
ClearContext
Removes all contexts from this entity's list.
ClearParent
Removes this entity from the the movement hierarchy, leaving it free to move independently.

Fires the respectiveOnUseroutputs; see User Inputs and Outputs.

KillHierarchy
Functions the same as Kill, although this entity and any entities parented to it are killed on the same frame, being marginally faster thanKillinput.

SetParent <string>
Move with this entity. See Entity Hierarchy (parenting).
SetParentAttachment <string>
Change this entity to attach to a specific attachment point on its parent. The entity will teleport so that the position of its root bone matches that of the attachment. Entities must be parented before being sent this input.
SetParentAttachmentMaintainOffset <string>
As above, but without teleporting. The entity retains its position relative to the attachment at the time of the input being received.
