Caring for resin products, whether they're jewelry, furniture, or artwork, is essential to keep them looking beautiful and lasting for years. Here are some resin product care tips:

1. Cleaning

• Gentle Cleaning: Use a soft cloth or microfiber towel to wipe down your resin pieces. For stubborn dirt or dust, lightly dampen the cloth with water. Avoid harsh chemicals that can damage the resin surface.
• Avoid Abrasive Materials: Don't use abrasive sponges or scouring pads, as they can scratch the resin.

2. Avoid Direct Sunlight

• Fading and Yellowing: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause resin products to fade or yellow over time. Store your resin pieces away from direct sunlight, especially for long-term storage.
• Heat Exposure: Avoid placing resin items in places where they are exposed to excessive heat, as high temperatures can cause warping or softening.

3. Store Properly

• Keep in Cool, Dry Places: Store your resin items in a cool, dry location to avoid warping or discoloration. Avoid placing them in damp or overly humid areas like bathrooms.
• Protect from Scratching: When storing resin items, especially delicate ones like jewelry, keep them in soft-lined boxes or pouches to prevent scratches.

4. Avoid Heavy Impacts

• Prevent Cracks and Chips: Resin can crack or chip if dropped or subjected to heavy impacts. Handle with care and store them in a safe place to avoid accidents.

5. Regular Maintenance for Jewelry

• Polishing: If your resin jewelry starts to look dull, you can polish it gently with a soft cloth. Some pieces might benefit from a light application of a resin-safe polish or wax.
• Avoid Water: When wearing resin jewelry, remove it before swimming or showering, as water can weaken the resin over time.

6. Cleaning with Soap and Water

• For tougher cleaning, use mild soap and warm water. After washing, dry the item immediately with a soft cloth to avoid water spots.

7. Preventing Damage from Chemicals

• Avoid Harsh Cleaning Products: Steer clear of products containing ammonia, bleach, or alcohol, as they can degrade the resin material.
• Use Resin-Safe Materials: If you need to use a cleaning agent, choose one specifically designed for resin to ensure it won’t damage the surface.

8. Scratch Repair

• Buffing: Small scratches can sometimes be buffed out using fine sandpaper or a buffing wheel (for large pieces). Start with a fine grit and gradually move to a smoother grit.
• Polish: After buffing, apply a resin-safe polish to restore shine.

By following these tips, your resin products will maintain their beauty and durability over time!
