Polyurea car ramps are highly durable due to their excellent abrasion resistance, impact strength, and flexibility. Their service life can range from 10 to 20 years, depending on usage and environmental factors. However, proper cleaning and maintenance can help extend their longevity.
Cleaning and Maintenance Tips:
- Regular Cleaning: Use a mild detergent and water to clean the surface of the ramps. Avoid harsh chemicals, as they may degrade the polyurea coating. After washing, rinse thoroughly and allow them to dry before storing.
- Debris Removal: Regularly remove dirt, sand, or gravel from the surface, as accumulated debris can cause wear over time, especially in high-traffic areas.
- Inspect for Damage: Periodically check for cracks, chips, or damage. If you find any, consider applying a polyurea touch-up to the damaged areas to prevent further deterioration.
- Proper Storage: Store the ramps in a dry, cool place when not in use, away from direct sunlight, which can lead to UV degradation over time.
- Avoid Overloading: Ensure that the weight load does not exceed the ramp’s specified limit, as overloading can reduce its service life and compromise safety.
By following these maintenance practices, you can maximize the lifespan of polyurea car ramps.
