Care and Maintenance

To ensure your Gatorback Mud Flap Set remains in peak condition, it's important to follow a simple care and maintenance routine. With regular upkeep, your mud flaps will continue to provide excellent protection and maintain their great appearance for years to come.

• Cleaning
  • Rubber Flaps: Regularly clean the rubber flaps with water and a mild detergent to remove dirt, mud, and road debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the rubber. A soft-bristle brush or sponge works best for scrubbing away grime.
  • Stainless Steel Plates: To maintain the shine of the stainless steel plates, use a stainless steel cleaner or a mild soap solution. Avoid abrasive pads, as these can scratch the surface. Wipe the plates dry with a clean, soft cloth to prevent water spots.
• Plate Maintenance
  • Periodic Polishing: To maintain the polished look of the stainless steel plates, polish them periodically using a non-abrasive metal polish. This will help remove any minor scuffs or marks and keep the plates looking like new.
• Hardware Check
  • Mounting Brackets and Fasteners: Periodically inspect the mounting brackets and fasteners to ensure they remain securely in place. Tighten any loose fasteners as needed to maintain stability and prevent any movement while driving. Checking the brackets regularly will ensure that your mud flaps stay properly aligned and continue to offer the best protection.
• Avoid Excessive Force
  • Avoid backing into obstacles that could damage the mud flaps, especially the rear flaps which are larger. The heavy-duty rubber is designed to be highly durable, but repeated force or impact can cause unnecessary wear.
• Seasonal Considerations
  • Winter Care: During the winter, road salt can accumulate on the mud flaps and brackets. Be sure to rinse them frequently to prevent corrosion of the mounting hardware.
