    @Grillinnap theres different compressors to cool the ice.. so they can melt one section and keep the rest frozen.. all they do is melt it remove the water paint it and re freeze it

  4. crapper1 says:

    nope they shave the ice and put white paint down resurface it and thats how that works to get the lines back they shave the ice till the lines are visible again thats how they do it near me

    Either they melt the entire rink and redo it or maybe they use the Zamboni to shave the ice down to remove the painted area. Likewise when they want to add a graphic they shave the ice down to the depth desired, paint the graphic and refill the area and level it out.

    During the first month of the season, they have the “Face-Off” signs in the neutral zone. How do they take them off? Do they have to melt the ice all over again? Same thing when they have to add “STanley Cup Playoffs” when it’s playoff time.

    Yes they cover with rubber mats and floor boards like any other arena. There’s plenty of videos on Youtube that show the process too. It takes about 2-3 hours for a good turnover crew.

  12. BloodyBodom says:

    When there are show’s in , let’s say Belle Center, do they cover the ice with a giant mat or what?

    It doesnt waste any water at all. Do you think water just disappears? The water goes right back into the atmosphere when finished with.

    that would be cool to have a shark tank under the ice so you can see the sharks while they are playing
