Visual Guide: Tyre Mark Removal in Action

See before-and-after shots of resin floors affected by tyre marks, focusing on each stage—from cleaning to polishing with specialist products. Watch as dull, streaked surfaces regain their clarity and shine using natural degreasers, isopropyl alcohol, and gentle sanding techniques.

Step 1: Start with a Gentle Surface Clean

Begin by sweeping or vacuuming the resin floor to eliminate loose debris and dust. Next, mix a mild cleaning solution using warm water and, if desired, a gentle neutral cleaner (avoid harsh chemicals that may react with resin). Mop the surface thoroughly to remove general dirt, which prevents grit from scratching the floor during further cleaning.

Always test cleaning solutions on a small, inconspicuous area first to verify they don’t dull or etch the resin. Basic cleaning may already lessen tyre marks, especially if they are fresh.

Step 2: Use a Natural Degreaser

If black streaks persist, it’s time for targeted cleaning. Apply the Strong Technical Degreaser for Resin Projects – 100% Natural Formula directly to the marks. Allow it to sit briefly, then use a microfibre cloth or soft sponge to gently rub the affected area.

Use circular, gentle motions to avoid damaging the resin. Rinse the area with clean water and dry with a soft towel to check progress. Repeat if necessary, but do not scrub aggressively.

Step 3: Apply Isopropyl Alcohol for Stubborn Marks

For tyre marks that resist degreasing, lightly dampen a clean cloth with Pure Isopropyl Alcohol 99.9%. Gently rub the mark, never saturating the floor or letting alcohol pool, as excess can affect the resin’s surface.

Work slowly, always ventilate the area, and only use the minimal amount needed. Wipe with a damp cloth afterwards to remove any alcohol residue.

Step 4: Sand and Polish If Necessary

If cleaning does not fully remove the tyre marks, minimal abrasion may help. Select a fine grit from the “Ebonite Abralon” – Sanding Pads 360-4000 Grit (start with 2000 or finer), and lightly buff the mark using wet sanding techniques to avoid heat build-up.

Finish by applying “Epoxy Polish” – Epoxy Resin Polishing System to restore gloss to the affected area. Polish according to instructions, using a soft pad or microfibre for best shine. Avoid using steel wool or harsh abrasives, which may permanently damage the resin.

Final Considerations and Mistake Prevention

Resin flooring is durable but sensitive to aggressive chemicals and rough handling. Allow the floor to fully dry before applying further treatments or returning to service. For best ongoing care, regularly clean with gentle products and avoid dragging tyres while stationary.

Take preventative steps such as using floor mats in high-traffic or parking areas. Periodic spot cleaning and timely removal keep your resin floor pristine for longer.
