12/04/2023When to brush a synthetic lawn: frequency and regularity
A synthetic lawn should be brushed regularly to keep the lawn in good condition. The frequency and regularity of brushing depend on how intensively the lawn is used and the surrounding environmental conditions.
We generally recommend brushing a synthetic lawn at least once a week in order to remove any debris, leaves, dust and other particles that accumulate on the surface. However, if the synthetic lawn is heavily used or is situated in a very windy or dusty area, it may need to be brushed more often, such as every two or three days.
Moreover, it’s important to brush a synthetic lawn immediately after using it so as to remove any trace of grass, mud or other substances that might damage the lawn over time.
In short, the frequency and regularity of brushing a synthetic lawn depend on the use and surrounding environmental conditions, but we generally recommend brushing the lawn at least once a week in order to keep it in good condition.
Brushing a synthetic lawn: how to do it properly
It’s important to brush a synthetic lawn to maintain its appearance and performance in the long term. Here are some tips on how to do it properly:
- Use a brush with soft bristles: Avoid using rigid or metal brushes, as they might damage the synthetic lawn. The ideal brush is one with soft bristles, like the one used for cleaning shoes.
- Brush regularly: Brush the synthetic lawn regularly, at least once a week to remove any dust, dirt and fallen leaves.
- Brush in the opposite direction of the fibres: To achieve the best results, brush the synthetic lawn in the opposite direction of the fibres. This will help to raise the fibres and remove any dirt.
- Use a brush for the infill: If the synthetic lawn has been filled with sand or rubber, use a specific brush for the infill. This will help to keep the infill uniform and prevent the formation of lumps.
