A Complete Guide to Cleaning and Maintaining Your Sharky Slides™

Cleaning Your Sharky Slides™:

1. Gather Your Supplies: You'll need a mild soap, water, a soft brush or cloth, and a towel.

2. Remove Debris: Before cleaning, remove any dirt or debris from your slides using a soft brush or cloth.

3. Prepare the Cleaning Solution: Mix a small amount of mild soap with water to create a cleaning solution.

4. Clean the Slides: Dip the brush or cloth into the cleaning solution and gently scrub the slides, focusing on any areas with stains or dirt buildup.

5. Rinse Thoroughly: Once clean, rinse the slides thoroughly with water to remove any soap residue.

6. Dry Properly: Use a towel to pat the slides dry. Avoid wringing or twisting them, as this can damage the material.

Maintaining Water Resistance:

1. Regular Cleaning: Regularly clean your slides as outlined above to remove dirt and debris that can affect water resistance.

2. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Avoid using harsh chemicals or cleaners, as these can damage the water-resistant coating.

3. Dry Properly: After exposure to water, allow your slides to air dry completely before wearing them again. This helps maintain their water resistance.

4. Reapply Water Repellent: If you notice that the water resistance is diminishing, you can reapply a water repellent spray specifically designed for EVA foam.

Tips for Longevity:

• Store your slides in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
• Avoid exposing your slides to extreme temperatures, as this can affect their durability.
• Rotate your slides with other footwear to allow them to air out and prevent odors.
• If your slides get wet, stuff them with newspaper to help absorb excess moisture and speed up the drying process.

By following these simple steps, you can keep your Sharky Slides™ looking and feeling like new for many adventures to come!
