Can the gorilla pad be reused from year to year?

We just took down our pool for the winter and the gorilla pad (although dirty) looks undamaged and has no tears or rips. Se we are reusing it next pool season.

It appears that it can. It works well but is a little thinner than I expected. We live in Louisiana, so our pool is still set up. When we break down the pool, we are planning to spray the pad with bleach, rinse, then dry thoroughly before we fold it and put it up for the winter.

Yes. I'm on my second year now. If it weren't for the gorilla pad I would have holes in my new pool. I leveled out the ground and brought in more dirt this year & still the rocks make their way back up to surface. This has been a lifesaver for me. I see no wear & tear on it at all & I left it out all winter last year

I own a pool store. We used the pad over a sand bottom because there were a lot of rocks mixes with the sand we did not have the time to pick out all the rock fo r our sample pools, we used it on 2 pools and they have been up for 2 years now and I have had no problem. It is thick and can be reused, but if you are using it for an "Intex" pool you do not need something that heavy duty, only for real steel pools. I hope this helped.

You can use it as little or as much as needed. I don't change the pad each time, in fact, I've changed butane before I've changed the pad.

I am not certain, but I have used it before and replace it once a year. It did not seem overly dirty when I replaced and probably could have stretched the use even longer.

Yes it can be reused - that's what I do. I pull it out of the drain, pull off the gobs of hair and replace it. If that's too gross for you wear gloves or throw it away.

Absolutely, and you can save it in a zip-lock baggie and use it over again.

Yes, and they are made in such away they can be reused as needed. Have been using these for years always pleased the quality has not changed.

Yes it can be reused several times but it does have to be discarded after several uses. If you are wearing in a confirmed infectious disease environment it should be discarded after being worn once.

Eventually there is a need to buy new pads. However this product used sparingly does extend the useful life of pads

I have not yet used this applicatior, but I think the pad can be cleaned by washing it with soap and water.

The pad is removable for cleaning or replacement, but it is a snug fit so it won't slide around.

i took the pad apart and used it as a pattern to cut microfiber pads to fit. then used them the same way as the original, except they are washable

Just fold it up and through it in the trash. I change the pads on the days I will be taking the trash out.

I don't think so but the pads sold today have extremely durable batteries -- good for years of constant use. By the time mine wears out I'll be ready for whatever the market has.

Yes it can. Each square has it's own zipper so you can just slide the pads out.

Although I kept it after first usage, I doubt it can work as new after a year. If you use it often then keep it.

The pad is fabric like a faux suede. It would have to be cleaned like any othe fabric.

I have never tried to reuse. My guess would be yes, provided it is free of muslin or cotton threads.
