Instructions for installation of your Marley Dance Mat - Practice Dance Floor:

First you will want to clean your sub floor so that it is free of all dust, dirt, and debris.

Inspect both sides of your Marley Dance Mat - Practice Dance Floor closely. *If you ordered the VersaStep version you will notice one side is textured while the other side is smooth and glossy. Your VersaStep mat should be laid out with the textured side up, and the glossy side down towards the floor. ProStep versions are reversible so either side may be used.

Position your Marley Dance Mat - Practice Dance Floor in place and use optional color coordinating Dance Floor Tape or Mat Tape around the perimeter of the mat and secure it in place. Tape around the perimeter of the mat edges and secure it in place.

ProStep & VersaStep Marley Dance Mats are easy to clean and maintain. Cleaning of this vinyl marley floor typically includes the following recommendations:

It is the nature of vinyl floors that scuffmarks may show upon the surface of the material. This in no way affects the performance of the floor.

The regular cleaning of your marley dance flooing is important to the overall life of your floor. The floor should be swept and mopped at least 3 times a week. In touring applications the floor should be swept and mopped everyday.

Do not use any cleaner with ammonia in its formula, as the ammonia will leave a slippery residue on the surface of your floor. Prior to the mopping, the floor should be swept clean with a soft push broom. A corn broom or other bristle broom may leave scratches on the floor surface.

For regular cleaning, Rosco All Purpose Dance Floor Cleaner is the specified cleaning product we recommend for all Marley vinyl dance floors. The water temperature should be warm but not hot.

For light duty cleaning, add 1 ounce of Rosco All Purpose Dance Floor Cleaner to 1 gallon of water, mop and let dry. For moderate to heavy dirt build up on the floor add 2-4 ounces of Rosco All Purpose Cleaner to warm water, mop and let dry. If there is gummy residue from floor tape, apply Rosco All Purpose Cleaner full strength to a soft cloth and rub on the build up.

Afterwards, rinse the area with warm water and let dry. If the floor has either been in storage or not cleaned for a period of time use Rosco Heavy Duty Dance Floor Cleaner. Rosco Heavy Duty Cleaner is a floor stripper as well as a cleaner.

Using Rosco Heavy Duty Cleaner you will remove all waxes and any excessive dirt that has built up the floor. Add 1 cup (8 ounces) of Rosco Heavy Duty Cleaner to cold water and mop. After cleaning rinse the floor with 1 ounce of household vinegar per gallon of cold water and let dry.

To remove difficult stains or spills, apply Rosco Heavy Duty Cleaner full strength directly to a soft cloth, rubbing the cloth on the stain. Then rinse the area with 1 ounce of household vinegar to 1 gallon of cold water to the area and let dry.

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, as discoloration may occur. We recommend closing blinds or drapes during peak sunlight hours to prolong the life of the floor.

Please note: This is not a stain-proof product. Leaving certain harsh chemicals or spills on the floor for an extended time may cause some staining and/or damage. Always clean up a spill immediately to reduce the chance of staining or other damage to your flooring.
