Maintaining your Flexitec Paver System
There are several ways of maintaining Flexitec pavers and the options
are set out below. Select the method that best suits your equipment
and labour resources.
- Pavers installed outside or in internal wet areas should be subject
to the occasional hose down. Allow draining and drying. (Do not
use high pressure equipment eg Karcher, Gurni etc.)
- If the pavers are soiled, remove excess solids, then scrub with
a soft brush plus biodegradable detergent and bactericide. Hose
down and allow the area to drain.
- Chewing gum removal :
Remove Chewing Gum from your Rubber Surface with CRC Freeze Spray 2039. Freeze
the affected area by applying Freeze Spray then remove gum by hammering surface
until gum shatters and falls away.
More information,including MSDS sheet, available from Flexitec Rubber Surfaces.

- To remove loose leaves, sand, dust, tanbark or pine chips, simply
sweep the area with a broom.
- Dusty internal pavers can be vacuum cleaned and then wiped over
with a damp 'sponge style' mop. Cotton rope mops are not recommended.
- Internal and external pavers can be maintained with a 'wet & dry'
vacuum cleaner system, such as Kerrick or ROTOWASH products,
using clean warm or cold water. Do use proprietary cleaners supplied
with these systems but be certain the pH is around 8 - that is
neutral.
Do not use industrial sweepers and cleaners fitted with hard
brushes.
- Cigarette burns will not damage the structure of Flexitec pavers
but will cause some minor loss of pigment on coloured pavers.
We recommend owners actively encourage users to treat pavers with
the respect due
to any high quality flooring system.
