Product Care
Environment:
50° to 75° Fahrenheit
40% to 65% Relative Humidity
No extreme fluctuations in temperature and humidity
No proximity to direct heat sources
No proximity to direct sunlight
No contact with moisture
Verre églomisé is susceptible to changes of temperature and relative
humidity. Ideal conditions for Verre églomisé are temperatures
between 50° F to 75° F and a relative humidity of 40% to 65%.
Verre églomisé must not come in contact with liquid. It should
also be kept away from sources of direct heat (air sources as well
as CPU's and laptops), and out of direct sunlight or other harsh light
sources. Over time heat will cause Verre églomisé to contract, lift,
and delaminate.
Dusting and Care:
- Gently dust with a soft lint free cloth.
- Always use coasters under both hot and cold drinks.
- To prevent scratching, use felt backing on lamps, ashtrays,
and accessories.
- When serving hot foods, always use place mats under plates
and hot pads under serving dishes.
- To prevent moisture damage make sure plants are in drip-proof
pots.
- When placing items on the glass, always set them down gently;
when retrieving items, pick them up, don't slide them.
- Don't place rubber directly on the glass, since it might contain
chemicals that could damage the surface.
- Blot spills immediately. Gently blot the area with a succession
of clean, soft, dry cloths until the spill is gone and the area is
completely dry.
