It takes 6 – 8 weeks for your new surface to reach its optimum condition. All TigerTurf surfaces require an evenly distributed infill, the bedding in period allows the infill material to penetrate and settle into the structure of the surface. Brush your surface regularly with a stiff brush, we would recommend at least once a month. Brush the surface in a number of directions as this will help remove any debris and leaves. Remember to brush against the pile direction as this will help prevent the pile from flattening. If some of the infill appears on the surface this is quite normal and just requires a light brushing to return it into the turf structure.
