Maximize Your Season: Keep Your Hockey Gear Clean for a Longer Lasting Experience
As the CEO of Matguard USA, I know firsthand how important it is to keep your hockey gear clean. Hockey is a physically demanding sport that requires a lot of gear, and over time, that gear can start to smell and harbor bacteria. That's why we offer a range of products designed specifically for cleaning hockey equipment. In this blog post, I'll share some tips on how to keep your hockey gear clean for a better season, and how our products can help.
Why It's Important to Keep Your Hockey Gear Clean
Keeping your hockey gear clean is not just about eliminating unpleasant odors. Bacteria and fungi can thrive in damp environments, and if left unchecked, can cause infections and skin irritation. Plus, clean gear is more comfortable to wear and can help prevent the spread of illnesses among teammates.
Tip #1: Air Out Your Gear
After a game or practice, the first thing you should do is remove your gear and air it out. Hang your gear in a well-ventilated area, or use a drying rack designed for sports equipment. This will help prevent the buildup of moisture, which can lead to odors and bacterial growth. Spray and wipe down equipment before airing it out.
Tip #2: Clean Your Gear Regularly
Even with proper airing out, hockey gear needs to be cleaned regularly. Our Helmet & Pad Spray is a convenient solution for disinfecting and deodorizing your gear. Simply spray it on your helmet, pads, and gloves after each use, and let it air dry. It's fast-acting and effective, killing 99.9% of germs and bacteria on contact.
Tip #3: Use Helmet & Pad Wipes for Quick Cleanups
For quick cleanups on the go, our Helmet & Pad Wipes are the perfect solution. These wipes are pre-moistened with our Helmet & Pad Spray, making it easy to wipe down your gear after a game or practice. They're also great for wiping down shared equipment, like goalie masks or team benches.
Tip #4: Use Blood Spray for Sports Equipment
Accidents happen on the ice, and blood stains can be tough to remove from hockey gear. We have designed our Blood Spray for Sports Equipment as a powerful formula to quickly and effectively remove blood stains. Simply spray it on the affected area, let it sit for a few minutes, and then wipe away the stain.
Tip #5: Keep Athletic Body Wipes in Your Bag
In addition to cleaning your gear, it's important to keep yourself clean and fresh-smelling after a game or practice. Our Athletic Body Wipes are perfect for wiping down your body and eliminating odors on the go. They're individually packaged and easy to carry in your hockey bag.
