Care Instructions

Congratulations on your unique piece of art from Stolen Print Club! To ensure your print stays vibrant and captivating for years to come, follow these care instructions:

 

1. Unboxing Your Print:

  • Handle your print with clean, dry hands, preferably with gloves.
  • Lay it flat on a clean surface, avoiding creases or bends.

 2. Framing Recommendations:

  • Choose acid-free matting and backing for preservation.
  • Opt for frames with UV-filtering glass to protect against fading.
  • Consider professional framing for larger prints to ensure stability.
  • For our standard print size of 35cm x 50cm, frames with a mat opening of 35cm x 50cm or slightly larger are suitable for an elegant presentation.

 3. Ideal Display Conditions:

  • Hang your print away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
  • Avoid humid environments; excessive moisture can damage the print.
  • Maintain a stable room temperature to prevent warping.

4. Cleaning and Maintenance:

  • Dust your print gently with a soft, dry microfiber cloth.
  • Do not use cleaning solutions or water directly on the print.

 5. Storage Tips:

  • If storing your print, use archival sleeves to protect against dust.
  • Keep prints flat to prevent warping.

 6. Handling and Transport:

  • When transporting, use a protective cover to prevent scratches.
  • Handle with care to avoid bending or creasing.

 7. Certificates of Authenticity:

  • Store certificates in a safe, dry place.

 8. Unframed Prints:

  • If keeping your print unframed, store it flat in a protective sleeve.
  • Handle unframed prints with extra care to avoid damage.

 9. Additional Notes:

  • Prints with a serial number and signature will have the number and signature on the front of the print within the specified dimensions, with the exception of oil-painted backgrounds that do not allow for writing and are therefore signed on the back.
  • For specific print details, refer to the information on each print's page.
