Looks like it's surrounded by a metal frame that mounts permanently. Once plenty of mud has fallen in, how is it cleaned out?

The mounts don't go all the way across, so if mounted properly, mud under a few inches would fall through. I've mounted mine on a small piece of plywood. Stand on wood with one foot while cleaning the other. Could be easily flipped for cleaning I guess.

Haven't had that issue but I think a hose or air should clean it out just fine

I mounted mine on a slatted wooden door mat so I could move it and keep it clean. Others recommended mounting it to a 2 x 12 just so you could clean it out more easily. If mounted to a solid surface like a porch are side walk I's use a stud of some type and wing nuts so you can easily release it to clean it out or you could mount it permanently and use a shop vacuum to clean it out.

Since I don't have a deck to screw it down, I anchored my scrubber on a small board which I can flip to shake off dirt. You can also hose it off.

i have mine mounted to a 1x8 when it gets too dirty i take it out back and hose it out

With the open slots on the ends, it is relatively easy to remove any mud/debris especially using a hose. I mounted my Boot Scrubber on a 12x20 scrap of Advantech (highly water resistant) with three pieces of hardwood to raise it above the surface/ground. This set-up allows you to stand on the low platform and stabilize it while "scrubbing" as well as allowing for good drainage, easier cleaning, and portability. The only caution is placement since it will definitely splatter the mud during use.

I don't know the answer to that one as we have never used it. I bought it for my husband, who brings plenty of dirt into the home, but his size 12's are no match for the scrubber.

Dirt and debris will collect there but there is a gap on each end where it will wash out. I use my mop water and flush it out whenever I mop the kitchen floor. It's a great tool. If brushes last a few years I will be extremely satisfied with the product. Best used in a location where you can brace yourself with a hand on non-moveable object. All in all works great and would buy again.

It is screwed onto the frame. All you'd need to do is unscrew it if you want to recover it with your own fabric.

It is metal particles, a mineral, suspended in water. If uncontaminated, it will keep indefinitely.

I bought the silt bag also. It took out all of the dirt. It was like gooey mud in that silt bag

I power wash it. I don't leave it up all the time anymore because it does get dirty with all our trees out back. It only takes a minute to put up or take down.

I would say you could probably put something under it to prop it up, I dug out a spot layed gravel down then sat it in it to keep mud and dirt from getting all over it with the rain and what not

It takes a little drilling just to punch out the holes of the screws in the mud flap itself. Otherwise it goes into the same holes that you take the old screws out of. No paint issues. I have the inner liner in the wheel wells and the flap is against it. A shorty screwdriver comes in handy if you don't take the tires off.

It is made out of fiberglass, which stands up well to the environment outside, but is very difficult to keep clean. Lots of nooks and crannies in the (unfinished) fiberglass interior and if you get mold in there, you'll never get it out.

There is a small fabric bag inside the vacuum that collects the debris. The bag is removable allowing for clean out and re installation .

There is a collar that houses the bucket. The bucket filled with dirt is easily removed from the collar.

My installation was for a redwood balcony deck to keep debris from falling onto my downstairs neighbor. I would clean it with a bucket of soapy water followed by a shop vac to suck excess water. It was not slippery when wet and cleaned like new. Made from the same rubber as tires, it's virtually indestructible. Not sure it would be aesthetically pleasing but functional? Yes.

It's like a teflon coated metal. Very easy to clean. Cleans up easily with a damp paper towel.

There is a locking/unlocking mechanism which permits the seat and cover to be removed while the bolts stay in place. This can make surfaces more accessible for cleaning.

It's cloth and plastic. I haven't had mine long enough for it to get dirty, but I think you could just wipe it with a damp cloth.

It is metal with a what looks to be a powder coat paint. I think it would eventually get surface rust, but if it doesn't need to look pretty, it would probably last for years outside.

it is a suction cup covered in a sticky surface. You can use it until it gets super dirty then the sticky will lose some of its adhesion, when this happens simply rinse it in the sink with warm water and let it dry and it will be as good as new.
