Looking After Your Resin

01

Regular Cleaning

Resin-bound surfaces are generally low-maintenance. Regularly sweeping away leaves, dirt and debris will help prevent staining and keep the surface looking fresh.

  • Use a soft or medium-bristle brush.
  • Rinse with clean water when needed.
  • Use a mild, suitable detergent for dirt.
  • Remove leaves and organic debris regularly.
02

Pressure Washing

Gentle pressure washing can help remove stubborn dirt, but excessive pressure may damage the resin or loosen stones.

  • Use a low-pressure setting.
  • Keep the nozzle moving and at a safe distance.
  • Avoid concentrated jets or turbo nozzles.
  • Never pressure wash uncured resin.
03

Stains & Spills

Deal with spills as soon as possible to reduce the chance of permanent staining.

  • Blot up oil and other spills promptly.
  • Use mild detergent and warm water.
  • Rinse thoroughly after cleaning.
  • Avoid harsh chemicals and strong solvents.
04

Winter Care

During colder months, take care when removing snow and ice from your resin surface.

  • Use a plastic shovel or soft brush.
  • Avoid metal scrapers and sharp tools.
  • Don't chip or strike frozen areas.
  • Ask us before applying chemical de-icers.
05

Protecting Your Surface

Although resin-bound surfaces are durable, concentrated weight, sharp objects and dragging heavy items can cause damage.

  • Lift heavy planters instead of dragging them.
  • Use protective pads under concentrated loads.
  • Avoid dropping heavy or sharp equipment.
  • Only use the surface for its intended purpose.
06

Long-Term Maintenance

Keeping your resin clean and checking for changes will help maintain its appearance and condition over time.

  • Clear moss, algae and debris early.
  • Keep surrounding drainage clear.
  • Check for cracks or movement.
  • Contact us if repairs or resealing are needed.
Every installation is different. This guide provides general advice for resin-bound surfaces. Installation conditions, surface type and intended use can affect the care required. If you're unsure about a cleaning product, repair or curing time, contact AA Resin before proceeding.
