​The interior of a water slide is where all the action happens. This is where most restoration on commercial water slides occurs. The problems can include: spider cracking, chips in gelcoat, hard water buildup (causing the slide to turn to a faded white color), leaks from expansion joints, sticky spots, and more.

There are a few simple reasons why you should choose to restore the interior of your water slide. First and foremost, interior maintenance of your water slide will maintain guest safety. If the fiberglass is exposed due to a chip in the gelcoat, it can cause harm to those riding the slide. Sticky spots can cause patrons to be stopped in the water slide, encouraging them to stand up to get moving again, which can be very dangerous. Hard water buildup can cause sticky spots and hurts the curb appeal of your slide. The goal of water slide maintenance is to prevent any large problem from happening, but when there are, there are solutions as well.

There are different solutions to the problems mentioned above and these include: 1. Re-gelcoat the interior of the slide: This gives you a fresh start. You will have a brand new interior and you can even choose what color you want! This option is best for slides that have mild to severe gelcoat chips, years of calcium buildup, and/or multiple visible spider cracks. ​ 2. Polish and Wax (Buff and Wax): This is a solution for water slides that are in semi-good to good condition. Things that you may see on a slide that a polish and wax can help address are: Minor scratches, light to medium hard water buildup, and a sticky ride path. ​ At SlideWays, we are committed to our customers.

​The exterior of a water slide can take a massive amount of beatings, especially outdoor slides. UV Rays fade the color and make the paint brittle enough to the point that it chips off. This obviously creates an eye sore to those that visit your slide. Most slides are exposed to chlorinated water which usually creates hard water build up or scale. This also gives a faded look to the exterior of water slides.
