Care Tips

Care of Prints

  • Handling
    • Frames protect the print and are fairly delicate, edges being prone to dents if knocked.
    • Glass will also scratch if contact is made with items such as metal buttons, zips etc or dirty cleaning cloths are used.
    • Do not turn hinged prints upside down as the hinge will be exposed to stress.
  • Hanging / Location
    • Prints are produced using Archival materials and Techniques and should provide many generations of enjoyment.
    • Please Hang securely, larger prints especially may require two hooks or special fittings depending on print size and wall.
    • Although most Frames are fitted with Museum or UV protection glass, life is prolonged if kept away from direct sunlight and/or halogen lighting
    • Prints don’t like changes in humidity, high or low temperatures or air pollutants like dust, smoke, petrol fumes, or close proximity to strong odours  etc.
  • Cleaning
    • To clean glass spray an ammonia free cleaner onto a soft lint free cloth and then clean in a circular motion.
    • Frame can be dusted but do not use polish
  • Problems
    • If you experience any problems please contact Steven Draper Photography with the Print Title and Date and if applicable the Work Number which appears on the rear of the frame.
