Caring for your new print
Congratulations on your new fine art print!
Your new print is more than just a piece of art, it's a portal to a world of adventure and the captivating beauty of nature. We've put our heart and soul into creating this piece, and we want it to remain a cherished part of your collection for years to come.
To ensure your print stands the test of time, we've gathered some essential tips:
Handle with Care: Use clean cotton gloves or archival tissue paper to avoid fingerprints and the transfer of natural oils on your hands.
Support Your Print: Creases are permanent, so support the long edges with both hands to prevent damage. Rolled prints should be taken to your framer to unroll.
Dusting: Don’t wipe your print to remove dust; use a blower or compressed air instead.
Framing: Select a reputable framer to help prolong the life of your print. For the best view without glare or reflections, consider using non-reflective glass or acrylic.
Avoid Direct Sunlight: To prevent fading, avoid exposing your print to direct sunlight, unfiltered fluorescent lamps, or the heat of incandescent bulbs.
Storage: When not on display, cover your print and store it using archival materials.
Climate Considerations: Room and storage temperature should be maintained at 20° - 22° with 45% - 55% relative humidity to maximize print life. However, in tropical climates, excessive humidity and heat are common, so we understand this may not always be possible. Just keep your print away from extreme conditions whenever you can, and try to avoid placing it in areas with high moisture or temperature fluctuations.
We hope that these tips help you cherish your new fine art print for many years to come.
