Installation Instructions
STEP 1 APPLY GATOR XTURF INFILL SAND
- GATOR XTURF surface. A drop spreader with an adjustable spread rate is the best tool for creating a consistent infill layer. However, be attentive to the rows with the spreader, as they will absorb into the GATOR XTURF when dropped.
- GATOR XTURF INFILL SAND requires a consistent speed and volume for optimal results. The more evenly you distribute it, the smoother the final surface will feel underfoot. Apply your infill material in a thin layer each time.
- GATOR XTURF INFILL SAND GATOR GREEN serves as the primary infill ingredient for the first layer. For pet playgrounds, GATOR XTURF INFILL SAND GATOR ZEOWHITE is widely regarded as the best topping infill to help eliminate and minimize odor. Additionally, GATOR XTURF INFILL SAND GATOR ZEO-WHITE is very porous, which helps keep your GATOR XTURFcooler in direct sunlight compared to rubber infill options.
N.B. Make sure the GATOR XP glue is set for 3 to 4 hours before brooming.
STEP 2 BROOM THE GATOR XTURF
- To maintain GATOR XTURF, use a stiff bristle broom, turf rake, or Power Broom to reset the blades. Avoid using a metal leaf rake, as it can damage the artificial turf blades. Apply firm pressure and walk backward slowly while working the infill deep into the GATOR XTURF. Work in rows and overlap your passes for even coverage. It is advisable to brush both north-south and east-west to ensure that no GATOR XTURF INFILL SAND GATOR GREEN is visible and that all the blades stand vertically.
- Utilize a leaf blower to clear away any GATOR XTURF INFILL SAND GATOR GREEN and/or cut blades remaining on the surface.
N.B. After brooming and blowing, lightly mist with water to eliminate static. This also helps the GATOR XTURF INFILL SAND GATOR GREEN settle into place and keeps the blades upright.
