Regular Cleaning Routine
Maintaining a clean surface is key to preserving the appearance of your resin-bound driveway. Regularly sweeping away debris such as leaves and dirt will prevent them from settling into the surface. For a deeper clean, use a pressure washer set to a low setting, as high pressure can damage the resin. A gentle wash will remove stubborn dirt and stains, keeping your driveway looking fresh and vibrant.
Addressing Stains Promptly
Resin-bound driveways are generally resistant to stains, but it’s still important to address any spills promptly. For oil or grease stains, use a mild detergent mixed with warm water and a soft-bristle brush to scrub the area gently. Rinse thoroughly with water to remove any soap residue. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive tools, as these can damage the resin surface.
Seasonal Care
Different seasons present unique challenges for maintaining your driveway. In autumn, ensure that fallen leaves are regularly cleared to prevent staining and moss growth. During winter, use a plastic shovel to remove snow and apply a non-corrosive de-icer to prevent ice build-up. Avoid using metal shovels or salt, as these can harm the resin surface.
Preventing Weed Growth
Weeds can sometimes grow in the joints of resin-bound driveways. To prevent this, apply a weed killer once or twice a year. Opt for a water-based herbicide to avoid damaging the resin. Regularly inspecting your driveway and removing weeds promptly will help maintain its pristine appearance.
