Maintenance

These are products made of latex. This material is susceptible, over time, to evaporation of the chemicals that make this type of rubber elastic.
To extend the life of this product, you can follow a few steps:

• Avoid storing loops outdoors and especially in the sun or strong light: air, light sources and UV rays are accelerants in the deterioration of latex.
• If possible, keep them in a tightly sealed bag after performing the exercises.
• Avoid using them by anchoring them on components with sharp edges (e.g. some tool racks)
• Wash with lukewarm water only. Do not use cleaning products: degreasers, alchoolics, oils are all aggressive for this material.
• After washing and always before use, the rubber band should be sprinkled with talcum powder. The talcum powder greatly reduces deterioration, and aids use by preventing the latex from gripping hands or tools, while also giving a better feel.
• As soon as you receive the elastic and also regularly, every 2-3 months after washing with lukewarm water, you can lubricate the elastic with a silicone lubricant, such as 'WD-40 Silicone Lubricant' (ATTENTION! NOT WD-40 Standard, which is aggressive). This procedure can prolong the life of the rubber band and avoid the white patina typical of this material.
• Do not experiment with cleaning or lubrication with products that may seem harmless: Vaseline oil for example is harmful to latex, as is olive oil. Similarly, amuchine or degreasers are very harmful. Follow the instructions above.
