Can Pressure Cleaning Damage a Tennis Court Surface?

Yes. Pressure cleaning can damage a tennis court if the pressure, nozzle, technique or cleaning solution is unsuitable for the surface. A powerful jet may remove paint, loosen acrylic coatings, expose underlying materials, disturb sand-filled artificial grass or force water into joints and cracks.
