CARING FOR YOUR
SCREEN
1. The easiest way to care for your screen,
is to keep it clean and dry. Always set up
your screen on a tarpaulin to prevent it from
coming into contact with the ground, grass,
dirt or sand that may dirty your screen.
2. When deating your screen after use,
always pull the screen down so that screen
lays over the back tubing, before removing
the screen surface. This will prevent your
screen surface from hitting the ground and
collecting any dirt on the way down.
3. Ensure your screen is always dry when rolled
up and put away. Any moisture can result in
mould growing and can destroy your screen.
GENERAL CARE
CLEANING
DRYING
PATCHING
1. Cleaning the tube is best done with a soft
cloth and some methylated spirits. This
not only cleans your screen but dries very
quickly without leaving and streaks. This
method can also be used to spot clean the
screen surface as well.
2. If the screen surface become very dirty,
simply zip of the screen and hand wash in
warm soapy water. Do not wash the black
section of attached to the screen surface.
Then hang out to dry.
1. If your screen gets wet from dew or rain
don’t stress! Simply shake off as much of the
water as possible and then pack away. Bring
out the following day when the weather is
better, set up and inate and the screen will
dry out usually within around 30minutes. If
the screen was very wet this may take a little
longer. Ensure all your tethers are also dry
as these can get mouldy as well.
2. Alternately leave your screen inated and
bring inside to dry off.
If your screen obtains a cut, hole or is pierced
by a sharp object it can be repaired. Simply get
out your repair kit to x your screen. Patching
the screen should be done when the screen is
deated.
1. Cut a piece of the PVC fabric so that it covers
the hole entirely, with approximately 2cm
around each side overhanging the gash.
2. Make sure that both the PVC patch and the
tubing where the hole is are clean
3. Use the glue supplied to glue around the
edge of the patch to create a seal over the
hole. Warning - Don’t use too much! The
glue can ooze out and make a mess of your
tubing.
