Duotone Traction Pad Pro - Front 2020

Maintaining your Traction Pad

Clean the pad regularly by rinsing it with fresh water to remove salt, sand and dirt. If needed, use a soft brush or cloth with mild soapy water - avoid harsh chemicals, solvents and pressure washers, as they can break down the foam and adhesive.

Let the pad air-dry in the shade after cleaning and after every sailing session. Do not expose it to direct sunlight for long periods or to strong heat sources such as radiators and hot cars, as this can dry out the foam and fade the color.

Store the board with the pad lying flat or hanging in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid contact between the surface and sharp objects, and check regularly that the edges are firmly attached - this way, your grip will last for many sessions.
