Regularly check your tyre pressures, lights, brakes, wheel nuts and general condition of the float. Keep the interior clean and dry, and address any unusual noises, movement or damage as soon as possible rather than waiting until your next service.

Caring For Your Paint & Decals
Your float's paintwork can take up to three months to fully cure, so we recommend gentle washing with low-pressure water and, if needed, a quality low-pH car wash during this period. Avoid high-pressure cleaners, abrasive products, and harsh chemicals, as they can damage both the paintwork and decals before they have fully settled and bonded. Where possible, store your float under cover and avoid parking beneath trees, as sap, bird droppings, and falling debris can quickly affect the finish. We also recommend avoiding float covers, as constant friction can wear away the protective coating over time.
Regularly wash the interior, particularly after your horse has urinated, as the acidic nature of urine can damage paint and metal surfaces if left untreated. With simple, ongoing care and maintenance, your float will continue to look its best and retain its value for years to come.
