Care Instructions

REPRODUCTION BACKGLASS CARE and RECOMMENDATIONS

Never “triple thick” or apply any additional coatings to the backside of the glass.
Alcohol, acetone, and most ‘rattle-can’ liquids must NEVER contact with the ink.
If laying a glass down on its backside, always put down a towel or fabric to lay on.
The glass stock is tempered – so avoid significant hot-cold temperature shifts.
Be cautious of any impacts to the edges, such as setting the glass down on a concrete floor.
Never allow ‘sitting’ moisture on the backside. After 5-7 minutes there is a risk of ink degradation.
Do not spray cleaner directly onto the backside as prolonged contact with liquids may damage your glass.
If you must clean the backside (bulb dirt, etc.) wipe with a pre-dampened cloth (water or Windex).
After wiping, make sure the liquid is dried off (wipe all the way to dry). Do not allow any moisture to sit.
Glass cleaner sprayed directly on the fronts is fine.
Don’t let cleaner sit between the channels and your glass.
