How to Care for Your Acrylic Products?

Cleaning Your Acrylic Products 
1. Use a Soft Cloth: Gently wipe the surface with a soft, lint-free microfibre cloth to remove dust or fingerprints.
2. Mild Soap and Water: For tougher stains, use a mixture of mild soap (like dish soap) and lukewarm water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
3. Dry Thoroughly: After cleaning, dry the acrylic with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.

Handling & Storage 
 Avoid Scratches: Acrylic can scratch easily, so handle with care. Use both hands when moving larger items. 

Avoid These 
1. Harsh Chemicals: Do not use ammonia, bleach, or window cleaners, as they can damage the acrylic surface.
2. Abrasive Materials: Avoid using paper towels, rough cloths, or scrubbing pads, as they can cause scratches.
3. Excess Moisture: While acrylic is water-resistant, prolonged exposure to moisture (e.g., humidifiers or steam) can damage the material over time.

Mounting & Installation
1. Use Recommended Adhesives: For wall-mounted items, we recommend using Command 3M Strips for a secure and damage-free installation.

-For outdoor application, we will send you a sheet with instructions on the most durable product to use, this can be found at Bunnings.
2. Avoid Wallpaper or Decals: Do not use adhesive strips on top of wallpaper or decals. If mounting on wallpaper, request pre-drilled holes for screws during ordering.
3. Follow Instructions: Always follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for any mounting products used.

UV Exposure
Our acrylic products come with a 10-year UV guarantee, meaning they are resistant to fading and yellowing. However, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may still cause slight changes over time. For best results, display your items in shaded or indoor areas.
