Everything you need to know about our handrail cleaning system
A 32oz bottle of RVP Conditioner/Cleaner can be diluted to make up to
384oz (3 gallons) of cleaning solution when using the 1:12 ratio. For
most handrails, you'll only need a few ounces per application, making
it very economical.
For high-traffic areas like malls and transit stations, we recommend
daily cleaning. For moderate traffic areas, 2-3 times per week is
sufficient. Low-traffic areas can be cleaned weekly or as needed.
RVP Conditioner/Cleaner is specifically formulated for escalator
handrails. The low coefficient of friction works its way deeply into
the pores of the handrail surface. This increases the elasticity and
thus, extends the expected lifespan usage. It also lubricates deeply
into the pores and pushes out the bioburden (germs, soil, and all
manner of bacteria).
RVP Conditioner/Cleaner is safe for rubber, vinyl, plastic, stainless
steel, aluminum, glass, and most other common handrail materials. For
leather or specialty finishes, we recommend testing on a small area
first. Please see our "Other Uses" page.
Most foam pads will last 3 or more years. We find when the facility
uses other cleaning chemicals, especially with high pH, they tend to
deteriorate more quickly. Please use RVP to maximize pad lifespan.
No special training is required! The 3-step process is simple and
intuitive. We provide complete instructions with every kit, and our
support team is available to answer any questions you may have.
We have found when you first use our cleaning system, the microfiber
pads will turn fairly dark to black. This is normal and expected! The
RVP in combination with our specially microfiber pads removes most
built up soil. You may increase the mix ratio for extreme buildup.
