PlayBound Poured-in-Place Maintenance Guidelines (Outdoors)
WARNING: READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE CLEANING
A. Monthly Maintenance Cleaning
- Hose off entire surface to remove food, drink, and loose debris. A pressure washer may be used at a setting not to exceed 1500 psi. Do not place the spray nozzle closer than 12 inches to the surface. Note: Repeat process on an as-needed basis.
- ISOLATED STAINS: On heavily stained isolated spots, while surface is still damp from hosing, apply a sufficient amount of a mild household or commercial detergent for adequate coverage using a hand-held spray bottle. Scrub thoroughly with a 10 inch medium basine bristle scrub brush. Repeat as necessary on extremely tough stains. It is at the owner’s discretion how often to repeat the process on extremely tough stains.
- GENERAL AREA CLEANING: While surface is still damp from hosing, apply a mixture of full strength mild household or commercial detergent and water using a garden pump sprayer to an area approximately 4 foot by 4 foot in size. Be sure to follow directions for use on the cleaner you choose from your local supplier. Scrub using the basine 10 inch medium bristle scrub brush. Repeat this process until entire surface has been completely and thoroughly cleansed.
- Once the entire surface area has been cleaned, rinse thoroughly using a garden hose with attachment.
B. For Best Results
- Perform cleaning during early morning or late afternoon so the cleaner will have time to react without evaporating.
- Area to be cleaned must be slightly damp prior to applying cleansing solution.
- Clean only a small 4 foot by 4 foot area at a time making sure it is thoroughly scrubbed to eliminate the possibility of dirty spots and/or streaking caused by areas missed while scrubbing.
- It shall be at the owner’s discretion whether to remove stains on a less than annual basis. The owner acknowledges that a stain may become more difficult or even impossible to remove if not addressed immediately.
- This procedure provides no guarantee of stain removal.
C. Recommended Cleaning Aids
- Mild household or commercial detergent (check with your local supplier).
- Hand spray bottle.
- One 1/2 gallon garden pump sprayer.
- 10 inch medium bristle scrub brush.
- Garden hose with spray nozzle.
- Pressure washer recommended (1500 psi maximum).
