Cleaning Polyurethane Handholds:

We recommend that you clean your hand holds every time you change the holds on the wall or set a new route. The easiest way to clean holds is to run them through a dishwasher on high setting, DO NOT leave them in through the DRYING CYCLE. Another method is to clean the holds in a bucket of warm soapy water with a scrub brush. It is necessary to scrub vigorously to clean the holds thoroughly to remove excess chalk, shoe rubber and oils from people’s hands. You will find that a regular cleaning returns your holds to a like-new condition and texture.

Always use nylon brushes and never metal bristle brushes as they will permanently remove the texture from your hand holds.


 

Cleaning Wood or Fiberglass volumes:

Use a bucket of warm soapy water and a nylon bristle brush to clean your volumes. Take extra caution to not get the underside of the wood volumes wet.
