From vibrant glittered resin phone cases to keychains, and even floral memory plaques, these products are masterpieces that require more than just care. Like any other handmade wonder, they require some handholding and TLC so that they do not lose their dazzle. 💖
In this post, we outline simple yet impactful ways to protect your resin products and ensure they are as splendid as they were the day you first unboxed them.
✨ Understanding Resin Products and Reasons for Special Attention
Although resin is a very strong material, it can still be scratched, exposed to harmful chemicals and even burned by the sun. Because of this, proper maintenance needs to be adhered to in order maintain clarity and sheen.
🌞 1. Do Not Expose To Direct Sun Rays
Much like people, resin doesn’t do well with UV skin rays. Unlike flowers and colors used, harsh and prolonged exposure will lead to fading and yellowing.
Pro-Tip: Try to keep the resin jewelry or décor in a box or shaded area when not being used to further ensure they are not exposed to harmful sunlight.
💧 2. Steer Clear of Water and Strong Chemicals
Resin is water-resistant, but it is not waterproof. Prolonged contact with water or vigorous cleaning products can cause damage or filminess.
Pro-Tip: Wearing resin jewelry and swimming, showering, or washing dishes don’t mix; remove your jewelry prior to performing these activities. To maintain your resin jewelry, wipe it down with a soft and dry cloth.
👜 3. Handle With Care
Resin items like plaques or delicate flower pieces might seem sturdy but can chip, crack, or break upon rough handling, or being dropped.
Pro Tip: Protect your gift or stored art by wrapping them in bubble wrap or soft materials to avoid scratches or breakage.
💅 4. Polish for Shine
Resin pieces can start to look dull or lose their shine; any dull piece can benefit from a quick polish.
Pro Tip: To rub the shine back into your resin artwork, use a bit of coconut oil, or resin safe polish with a microfiber cloth.
🧽 5. Dust Regularly
If highlighted, resin décor is subject to gathering dust which diminishes its magic. It needs to be clean and the great news is that it’s effortless to clean!
Pro Tip: Dust off superficial capacity with a soft brush like a makeup brush or a microfiber that won’t scratch the surface.
💡 Bonus: Store with Love
Put keychains, jewelry, or phone cases in soft pouches or boxes to keep them free of dust and scratches when not in use.
🎁 Final Thoughts Every product is created singular by hand which makes every treasure made out of resin personal as it has its own little story. With a tad bit of care, the most treasured resin accessories and keepsakes can be kept alive, beautiful, and meaningful for decades.
