FAQs
What are the exact dimensions of the Arrma Foam Pit Mat?
The mat measures 24 inches in width and 68 inches in length.
Is the mat waterproof?
The foam material is water-resistant, but not fully waterproof. Spills should be wiped up promptly to prevent absorption.
Can I use this mat outdoors?
Yes, the mat is suitable for outdoor use on relatively flat surfaces. However, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh weather conditions may degrade the material over time.
How should I store the mat?
It is best stored unrolled if space permits. If rolling is necessary, roll it loosely with the branded side facing inwards. Avoid creasing or folding sharply.
Will this mat protect my workbench from impact?
The foam provides a cushion against minor impacts and scratches, but it is not designed to protect against heavy impacts or sharp dropped tools.
Does the mat come in other sizes?
This product information only specifies the 24" x 68" size.
Is the Arrma branding printed or embossed?
The Arrma branding is typically printed onto the surface of the mat.
Troubleshooting
Mat does not lay flat
Allow the mat to sit unrolled in a warm environment for several hours. Placing heavy objects on the corners can also help flatten it.
Mat has a persistent odor
Air out the mat in a well-ventilated area. A light cleaning with mild soap and water, followed by thorough drying, can also help dissipate odors.
Surface feels sticky after cleaning
Ensure all soap residue has been rinsed off. Use only a damp cloth or minimal water for cleaning and dry thoroughly.
Minor tears or punctures
Small punctures may not affect functionality significantly. For larger tears, consider using a heavy-duty adhesive or epoxy suitable for foam, though structural integrity may be compromised.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This pit mat is designed for use with all types of Radio Control (R/C) cars, trucks, and other vehicles. It is suitable for both indoor and outdoor track environments.
Care: To clean the mat, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the foam. For stubborn stains, a soft brush can be used gently. Ensure the mat is completely dry before rolling or storing it to prevent mildew.
