How can I prevent future damage to my restored statue?

Keep Out of Direct Sunlight and Damp

Sunlight can gradually break down resin finishes and cause fading or yellowing, while moisture may affect the statue’s appearance or even create surface cloudiness. Place your restored statue in a shaded area, away from persistent, harsh light, and try to avoid spaces that trap humidity such as greenhouses or near leaky windows.

Routine Cleaning and Gentle Maintenance

Regular dusting helps prevent build-up that can dull your statue’s shine. Use a soft, dry cloth to gently remove dust and avoid abrasive cleaning products. For extra gloss and surface protection, consider occasional application of a dedicated resin-safe polish such as “Epoxy Polish”. Apply polishing creams carefully and only as needed to maintain the finish, rather than over-polishing which may degrade delicate surfaces.

When Protection Really Matters

Outdoor displays: For garden or exterior statues, shielding from rain and temperature fluctuation is crucial. If possible, bring statues indoors during harsh weather.
• High-traffic interiors: Statues in busy areas are more likely to be knocked or scratched, so place them out of the way and on stable surfaces.
