As a business called Epoxy and Wood Design Studio, we understand that our customers want their custom epoxy designs to last for many years to come. While epoxy is a durable and long-lasting material, it's important to properly care for it to ensure it stays in great condition. In this blog post, we'll share some tips on how to properly care for your epoxy designs.

Regular Cleaning

The first step in caring for your epoxy designs is regular cleaning. Use a soft cloth or sponge and mild soap to clean your epoxy surfaces. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the surface. Be sure to rinse the surface with water and dry it thoroughly to avoid water spots.

Avoid Heat

While epoxy is heat resistant, it's best to avoid exposing it to high temperatures as much as possible. Don't place hot pots or pans directly on the surface and use coasters or trivets to protect the surface from heat.

Avoid Sharp Objects

Epoxy surfaces can be scratched or damaged by sharp objects, so it's important to avoid using sharp knives or other tools directly on the surface. Use a cutting board to protect the surface from scratches and dents.

Don't Use Harsh Chemicals

Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents on epoxy surfaces. These can damage the surface and cause discoloration. Instead, use a mild soap and water to clean the surface.

Avoid Sunlight

Direct sunlight can cause epoxy surfaces to yellow or fade over time. If possible, avoid placing your epoxy designs in direct sunlight or use curtains or blinds to protect the surface from UV rays.

Refinishing

Over time, your epoxy surfaces may begin to show signs of wear and tear. If this happens, it's possible to refinish the surface to restore it to its original condition. Contact a professional to refinish your epoxy surfaces as it requires special equipment and expertise.

In conclusion, properly caring for your epoxy designs is important to ensure they stay in great condition for many years to come. Regular cleaning, avoiding heat and sharp objects, and avoiding harsh chemicals are all key to maintaining your epoxy surfaces.
