Good skateboard grip tape?

What should i do to keep my skateboard clean and look clean and make the grip tape not rip as easily?

• i bought a new Zero 120 dollar skateboard and i road it for like only 3 or 4 days, the skatboards is wearing off. The grip tape is is ripping off and turning brown and a really yuk color. Also the wood of the board is scrapping off alot and breaking off too. What should i do to help make my board clean and look good?

• Answer:

  Try to ride on clean, dry days. Don't do grinds or anything that would scratch your deck. What I do is get an old toothbrush, put some water on it, and scrub the mud stains off. It's really easy and effective. Skateboards are meant to go through some wear and tear. Hope this helps!
