Post Foam
-
Tough Skin Post Padding has a semi pliable shell which protects it from deterioration and vandalism - Clean by wiping and/or steam cleaning
Safety Surfacing
- Safety surfacing porosity and texture result in a surface with properties that are very similar to regular carpet. Therefore, maintenance of a carpet and of safety surfacing are virtually identical
- Sweeping - Sweeping the surface with a stiff bristle broom will be the most common method of keeping the surface clean. However, because of the porosity and granular texture of the surface, it is difficult to remove contaminants by sweeping alone
- Vacuum - A vacuum will provide similar results as when used on carpet
- Damp Mop - You can clean with a damp mop NOT a wet mop
- Water Hose - Use a water hose with a pressure spray tip to remove contaminants from porous top surface. However, if performed the safety surfacing should be removed, cleaning and allowed to completely dry before reinstalling
