When you are planning a great business opening or go to a trade show, you will need some giant and eye-catching advertising inflatables to show your products and services and draw in customers. The various advertising inflatables are so great and useful, suitable for many events and occasions. But when the day is over, you will need to take down the huge inflatable balloons and fold it over for storage. The proper deflation, cleaning and storage can help to keep your high quality advertising inflatables in excellent condition for many years.

1. Deflate the advertising inflatables properly

When it comes to the giant inflatable balloons for advertising, we think about the giant Helium blimps or huge inflatable animals. When you take it down from the sky, you need to find a flat and open space to place the inflatable structure. Use a tarp to cover the ground and clean all the obstacles first, then you can open the air valve to deflate the giant inflatable. Let the deflation port facing straight up towards the sky can help increase the rate of evacuation, or you can use a shop vacuum for quick and efficient deflation. Be attention, don't squeeze or lie on the inflatable, this won't help to increase the rate of evacuation, and possibly will cause the seam damage or lead to tearing the inflatable unit.

Before you fold the advertising inflatable over, you should also check the whether you have evacuated as much air as possible. If your advertising inflatable balloon has residual air inside, it will be difficult to roll and may cause seam damage when you forcibly roll it up. Use a vacuum to evacuate the residual air throughly and then spread it out on the tarp for packing.

2. Fold over horizontally and roll it up

For the large inflatable structures, you need to fold it over horizontally before you can roll it. Always remember to leave the air valve outside of the folds so that the remaining air can escape freely, and then also roll the inflatable towards the air valve. The larger advertising balloons sometimes have trapped pockets of air, and you don't need to squeeze it out forcibly to prevent damage, the air will exit on its own over time.

3. Clean and maintain your advertising inflatables

Before storing the inflatables for an extended period of time, we strongly recommend throughly cleaning and drying them first. The proper cleaning can help maintain your advertising inflatables and other inflatable structures a good looking and prolong the life of materials.

Most of advertising inflatables use the same materials as the commercial jumping castles and slides, just not so thick. Warning, the harsh solvents can damage the paintings and material of your advertising inflatables, so choose the mild detergents recommended by the manufacturer.

In our experience, we use the Windex multi-surface with vinegar for general cleaning, for heavier soiling on the inflatables, we recommend the Simple Green, and to remove tar and other contaminants, we recommend Goo Gone.

4. Store the advertising inflatables

Like the other inflatable bouncers, the proper storage is also very important for the advertising inflatables. If you want to use your advertising balloons and cartoons for many years, you should always store them in a dry and clean environment. We recommend a special sealed storage bag from the manufacturer, this is an affordable investment and adds extra protection during storage. And don't forget to dry your inflatables throughly before rolling them up. The mold and mildew can set in quickly with dampness and will cause irreversible damage to your inflatable in a short amount of time.
