Care & Handling

✦ Care & Handling

Caring for your metal print.

Metal prints are among the lowest-maintenance fine art formats — but a little care extends their life dramatically.

Unboxing

Each panel ships in protective foam within a double-walled box. Cut the tape at the top only. Tip the box on its side and slide the foam sleeve out gently. Do not grip the printed surface — handle by the edges.

Mounting

Every panel comes with a pre-installed float mount on the back, offset 0.75\” from the wall. Use the included hardware and a level. For multi-panel sets, the recommended gap between panels is 0.5\”.

Cleaning

Dust with a clean, dry microfiber cloth. For smudges, spray a diluted solution of water + isopropyl alcohol (50/50) onto the cloth (never directly onto the panel) and wipe gently. Avoid any ammonia-based or abrasive cleaners.

Never use glass cleaner. Glass cleaners contain ammonia which can etch the polymer layer.

Direct sunlight

Our prints are rated for decades of indirect light. Direct, unfiltered sunlight all day every day will eventually fade them — same as any fine art. For south-facing or full-sun walls, hang at least 3 feet inward from the window, or use UV-filtering glass in the room.

Lifetime warranty

If your piece fades, warps, delaminates, or shows manufacturing defect within your lifetime, we replace it. Email warranty@wcdesignandart.com with a photo and we will take it from there.
