black streaks on the sports floor

scuffs

For the removal of black streaks caused by rubber, we recommend the P2 cleaner combined with a melamine pad.

Where do black stripes and scuffs come from?

Shoe soles, roller skates, sports and game equipment, bicycle or wheelchair tires are often the culprits. This quickly gives the sports floor a dirty and unkempt appearance. By the way, did you know that in hot weather, bitumen can drip from the ceiling onto the floor? This too gives ugly black spots and streaks. With soap and water, black streaks and scuffs are usually impossible to get rid of.

Tips to reduce black streaks

To reduce soiling of your gym floor, we do not recommend black soles or roller skates with soft rubber wheels. In addition, we recommend using decent-sized mats at the entrance to catch the dirt. This way you spend less time cleaning and it extends the life of the sports floor.

How do you remove streaks on the sports floor from field hockey sticks?

Streaks on a floor are mostly caused by indoor field hockey. This happens during a game or practice by almost any field hockey stick because of the material and hardness of the hitting part of the field hockey stick. Taping the strike section will cause slightly less obvious streaking, but the use of field hockey sticks indoors continues to cause streaking on the sports floor.
