Thank you for purchasing your Bret Webster Image! We hope it brings you decades of joy. They require minimal care when hung.
NOTE: YOUR IMAGE COMES WITH A THIN PROTECTIVE MASK/FILM ON THE FACE OF THE IMAGE TO PROTECT IT DURING TRANSPORT. THIS FILM MUST BE REMOVED (JUST PEEL IT OFF) BEFORE YOUR PICTURE IS FULLY OPERATIONAL! There may also be a little buffing compound around the edges when your image first arrives. This is normal – just remove it with a soft microfiber cloth.
- NEVER use alcohol or any other solvent or cleaners with Ammonia (Windex) on the plexiglass. They will cause cracking or fogging in the surface.
- Remove dust by verrry slightly dampening a soft micro-fiber (or cotton) cloth with water and wipe everrr so gently. Be sure not to saturate the cloth. Gently dry the plexiglass immediately with another cloth. Do NOT use paper or terry cloth towels as they will cause scratches in the acrylic.
- If the surface must be cleaned use a mild solution of dish soap and water to clean the dirt off. Use a cloth moistened in the solution to clean the surface.
- Special cleaners for acrylics/plexiglass are also available and recommended (often at Lowes or Home Depot) such as Novus #1 and Brillianize.
Below are links to the products that we use:
- Brillianize
- Brillianize SofKloth (microfiber cloths also work well)
- Novus PC
CAUTION!
If you have purchased a “Museum Mount” (without a brushed metal backframe) and if it is taller than 36” in the smallest dimension PLEASE USE PLASTIC DRYWALL INSERTS and associated screws, etc. if you are hanging on drywall. A set should have arrived with your image taped to the back. The little art-hangers sometimes additionally provided with your picture MAY NOT be strong enough in drywall (especially if it’s thin) with just nails holding them. This is only applicable for large images. Thanks! (The drywall anchors should also have been included with your picture).
