How do I clean canvas prints?
For high-quality canvas prints that use a sealant for the ink and a UV-protective coating, like those offered by ArtisanHD, there’s nothing special you need to do to care for your canvas image. Cheap canvas print reproductions will require greater care and maintenance in order to preserve the print.Good canvas prints only require a little bit of dusting, however, there are three guidelines for general canvas care you should know to retain the print’s original vividness long-term:
Avoid long-term exposure to sunlight
Avoid hot and humid areas
Dust regularly with no chemicals
Avoid long-term exposure to sunlight
The protective UV coating on Giclee canvas prints protects canvas images like never before against solar radiation. Compared to old or cheaper canvas prints, a good UV coating will help your canvas last much longer. That said, it’s generally not recommended to hang canvas prints outside or on a wall that gets consistent and sustained exposure to direct sunlight. It’s best to display canvas in a room with ambient indoor lighting.
Avoid Hot and Humid Environments
Because canvas is a natural fiber, it can be affected by the environment around it. So walls in rooms that are hot for extended periods of time or outside and subject to outdoor heat are not ideal for canvas. The same goes for humid or wet environments, given enough time, moisture will decrease the vibrancy of the canvas print. Canvas does better in dry and cool environments and should be hung.
Dust Regularly With No Chemicals
Dust and dirt build up on everything, even paintings. Use a feather duster or a soft cloth that’s slightly moistened to clean your canvas regularly. Only use a fine linen cloth that is not too wet to avoid scratching or damaging the canvas. You should never use household cleaners or chemicals to clean your canvas, this can break down any protective coating or even ruin the image.
Ceramic mugs are a classic choice for enjoying your favourite hot beverages. But they require proper care to keep them looking and feeling their best. Here are some top tips on how to care for your ceramic mugs:
- Wash by hand: While dishwasher-safe, hand-washing is the best way to preserve the quality of your ceramic mugs. Use gentle dish soap and a non-abrasive sponge or cloth to clean them.
- Avoid harsh chemicals: To protect the glaze and design of your mug, avoid using harsh chemicals such as bleach or ammonia when cleaning.
- Rinse thoroughly: Rinse your ceramic mugs thoroughly with warm water to remove any remaining soap or residue.
- Store with care: To prevent chips or scratches, stack your ceramic mugs carefully when storing them. Consider using a protective layer to separate them.
- Avoid extreme temperatures: Let your mug reach room temperature before pouring hot liquids into it to prevent thermal shock. Do not pour boiling water into a cold mug.
- Use coasters: To prevent scratches or stains, use coasters when using your ceramic mugs on sensitive surfaces.
- Check for damage: Check your ceramic mugs for cracks or chips before use. Do not use a damaged mug as it may cause spills or burns.
