| Tiles |
Never store in plastic bags it causes
chemical changes that you won't like at all. It is still okay to ship
little packages of tiles in zip-locks, just remove them as soon as
possible.
If you are a collector, please open the cases from time to time and
let these little tiles "breathe".
Never store near heat!! |
| Cases |
Oil those hinges and latches - actually oil
all the metal parts including the little nubs that protect the case,
it helps protect them from rusting.
Your oilcloth "faux alligator" case can be wiped with a damp
cloth if you spill on it.
Restoration -- please don't take these cases to a shoe repair or luggage
repair place, they will add tacky handles and stupid hinges. Take them
to an antique restorer.
