To perfectly lay your artificial grass onto an existing hard base such as concrete or tarmac, we recommend installing a layer of Lazy Foam underlay beneath the artificial grass. Before you lay the foam pad down, make sure to clean the surface with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris that may have accumulated over the course of the installation.
Once you have laid your foam pads, you will need to wait at least 24 hours before you can begin to paint them again. This is to allow time for the paint to fully dry before it can be applied to the new surface. If you do not wait this amount of time, your paint will not be fully cured and you may find that your new grass is not as green as you would like.
