I have an artificial grass installed in our backyard but the blades are now flattening down. How can I make them stand straight again?
This a good question. Artificial grass is made of plastic resins which tends to have memories
: when applying certain force to it in a consistent way, such as foot traffics and motions of pressing, the artificial turf fibers will try to remember
it and stay that way, that is the reason why after a while with consistent traffic or pressures, your turf might get flattened. One thing you don't need to worry about is that even turf is matted down, the integrity of the product remains in tact besides the visual differences. There are several things you can consider to minimize or fix this concern:
memoriesgot built in the fibers which can make it more difficult to brush back up. I will recommend you to brush the fibers up in a warm day (70 degree F or above) and you will find it super easy to brush the fibers.
