How to care for resin artwork

Resin is durable, but like any polished surface it rewards a little care. These habits keep the gloss and clarity you saw on the day it arrived.

Keep it out of direct sun

Strong, direct sunlight over long periods can yellow clear resin and fade pressed flowers. A bright room is fine; a sunny windowsill is not.

Mind the heat

Keep pieces away from stoves, diyas, heaters and hot car dashboards. For pooja thalis and tealight holders, use the diya cups provided rather than placing flame directly on the resin.

Dust gently

Use a soft, dry microfibre cloth. For fingerprints, a cloth very lightly dampened with water is enough. Avoid alcohol, acetone, glass cleaners and scrubbing pads, which dull the surface.

Hang with care

Wall pieces are heavier than they look. Use a screw or a hook rated for the weight, not adhesive strips.
