How to Recondition Your Poured In Place Surface with Trassig's Rebinder™
When do I apply the Rebinder™?
You can only rebind your playground surface when it needs to be reconditioned. Rebinding prematurely can harden the Poured In Place system. We tell our clients to do the "Shuffle test" which means scraping your feet on the rubber surface to see if you can easily dislodge the granules. It's very important to ONLY Rebind when you see loose granules.

You will need the following materials:
Look for a sunny day above 60 degrees. If it is going to rain within four hours after applying, do not rebind.
Step 1: Use a leaf blower to remove loose granulated rubber and other debris from area. If necessary, use a power washer with a wide angle nozzle and binder friendly detergent to sanitize the surface. Make sure your surface is COMPLETELY dry before continuing. Check under equipment for possible excess water and moisture
Step 2: Lay down a tarp to avoid splashing and use a paddle mixer to thoroughly mix the Rebinder™ in the pail before use. It is necessary to mix Rebinder™ before use.
Step 3: Pour Rebinder™ into drip pan. Do not mix with other products or solvents.
Step 4: Use a cheap paint roller to equally distribute Rebinder™ on your poured in place surface because you will be throwing it away after installation.
Step 5: Apply pressure when applying Rebinder™ in order to make sure the coat is even and sufficient. Go over each area only one time. Do not treat Rebinder™ like paint. Multiple layers will harden your surface.
Step 6: Even though Trassig’s Rebinder™ is fast curing, secure area and allow 24 hours before use after application. If it rains 4 hours or more after application the Rebinder™ will not be affected, but it cannot rain during the application of the Rebinder™ for it to properly cure.

Don't try anything else.
When I ordered the Rebinder, I called and had a few questions about the rain and general temperature thresholds I should abide by while installing this PIP conditioner. The installer that picked up the phone was beyond helpful (And yes every time I called, whoever picked up the phone was an actual installer who has used the product for years.) Not only did he walk me through the entire process stop by step, he had me go on facetime for me to show him some cracks in the poured in place rubber flooring that I wasn't sure the Rebinder would cover. It's refreshing to find a company that cares about their products and customers. Way to go Trassig.
This is the original Rebinder made by the original Trassig. Any other product will cost you. I made that mistake.
I manage a few parks and over the years I have used quite a few products to rejuvenate my playground rubber surfaces and to stop granulation. Our budget simply didn't allow for frequent recaps. I have to say that out there you will find the good, the bad and the ugly. Trassig's Rebinder has been the only conditioner I have been using. It doesn't harden the surface, the coverage is amazing, and the support unparalleled.
I did and I paid the price. Thank God the Trassig team walked me through undoing the mess I had done. The Rebinder is the only product you want to use.
