Rubber Surfacing Maintenance

Routine Cleaning

Sweep Regularly: Use a broom or leaf blower weekly to remove dirt and debris.

Gentle Washing:

Use a garden hose with a spray nozzle to rinse the surface.

For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and a soft-bristled brush.

Rinse thoroughly with clean water.

Monthly/Bi-Monthly Deep Cleaning

Pressure Washing:

PSI Setting: Use up to 3,000 PSI with a wide fan tip (25 to 40 degrees).

Technique: Keep the nozzle at least 18 inches away and move it continuously to avoid damage.

Detergent: Use a mild, rubber-safe detergent if needed.

Seasonal Maintenance

Inspect for Damage: Regularly check for wear, such as thinning areas or cracks. Repair minor issues promptly with a rubber repair kit.

Replenish Granules: Every 1-2 years, add new rubber granules to high-traffic areas to maintain cushioning and safety.

General Tips

Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Use only mild detergents safe for rubber.

Furniture Pads: Use under heavy items to prevent indentations.

Shade Structures: For outdoor surfaces, consider shade structures to reduce heat and UV exposure.

Slip-Resistance: Keep surfaces clean and free of algae or moss, especially in wet areas like pool decks.

Regular, simplified maintenance ensures the longevity, safety, and appearance of your rubber surfaces.
