    Process of Installing Rubber Coatings

    Applying a rubber coating has to be done quickly because of its consistency but also so that all areas can dry at the same time for an even flooring. Applying a rubber coating is best done by a professional to ensure it is done accurately for the best flooring possible. Below is a step-by-step process of how rubber coatings are applied.

    Step 1: Clean the surface and tools that you will be used for applying the rubber coating and be sure to wear gloves for the process to keep your hands clean.

    Step 2: Prepare the mixture to be applied.

    Step 3: Dip the tool into the mixture quickly but evenly and only once. Dipping the tool more than once can increase the drying time.

    Step 4: Apply the coating and allow it to dry. After it has dried check to ensure the application was done correctly and apply the desired coats allowing each to dry in between.

    maintaining

    Maintaining Your Rubber Coating

    Maintaining this coating is fairly simple. The main thing to remember is to clean the surface regularly. Having a scheduled cleaning routine is key to keeping these coatings clean and looking their best. Making sure that small dirt, debris, and other elements like sand are regularly swept away from the surface can make a world of difference. A nylon broom is the best tool to use for cleaning the surface because it is easier and won’t cause potential damage like that of a metal bristle broom. Routine cleaning can be accomplished with mild soap and water in combination with a microfiber mop. Pressure washing the surface should be avoided as it can degrade the binder and weaken the surface. If you want a more sanitized surface for your rubber coating, there are specialty sanitizing cleaners made specifically for your rubber coating.
