How to maintain woodcarving?

1, wood carving should be kept in the shade.

Wood carving crafts should not be exposed to the hot sun for a long time, and it is easy to crack if the temperature is too high. Too strong light will make the work fade, the wax layer on the surface will melt, the paint film will fall off due to aging, and even the material will be deformed or cracked. Therefore, when placing it, be careful not to put the wood carving crafts near the window or in a ventilated place.

2, wood carving crafts should be placed in the right humidity.

It is easy to breed mold, pests and diseases, causing mildew, moth-eaten, rot and cavities, and some wood carving crafts will be moldy and grow "green hair". For example, green sandalwood crafts will spit out silvery white silk. In an excessively dry environment, wood carving crafts may be partially cracked.

There is heating in winter and air conditioning in summer, which is a common phenomenon in northern rooms. The air outlet of wood carving crafts is not suitable for direct blowing. The excessive temperature difference between hot and cold is one of the reasons for the cracking of wood carving crafts.

3, wood carving crafts should not be placed in a position that is easy to be heated.

For example: open flame, firewall, fire resistance, stove, radiator, near heating pipe.

4, unfavorable use towel dipped in water to wipe.

Generally speaking, wood carving crafts should not be washed with detergent, let alone soaked in water, nor can they be wiped with towels. Wood carving crafts not only swell when wet, but also shrink after drying, and the expansion coefficient increases, which leads to wood carving cracking; It is also easy to destroy the natural protective layer on the surface of wood carving, which affects the luster and impression effect.

Wipe the dirt with a soft cloth first, and then wipe it with pure cotton cloth containing wax or grease. In daily maintenance, cotton cloth is often dipped in Bellevue or floor wax to wipe it. Long-term rubbing will make woodcarving smoother and more beautiful.

5. It is not advisable to move frequently.

Prevent and avoid disfigurement such as friction and collision during the movement of wood carving crafts, or be portrayed by sharp objects and hard objects, leaving traces, spots and scars.
