BRAND NEW

Introduction

• Trophies and awards are always the matter of
  pride be it from sports, academic, or corporate,
  and it serves the intended purposes very well. We
  like to display our achievements in the form of
  trophies and awards of different kinds. Thereby,
  we take different routes to display them in our
  home, office, or wherever a possibility we find.

1 - How to Clean Your Gold Silver Trophies?

• Air humidity and contaminations are the prime
  cause of oxidation in precious metals like gold
  and silver. The damage occurs only up to a few
  top layers and metal beneath is remaining
  unaffected.
• I would like to mention here three kinds of
  treatments we used to apply for precious metal
  cleaning.
• Plain Water Washing
• Spa Bath with Mild Alkaline Solutions
• Spa Bath with Mint Containing Solutions

• Wash Your Trophy with Detergent Powder Plain
  Water
• Most of the dirt and mild stains can easily
  remove by plain water washing or direct
  application of soap mixed water.
• You can use the usual washing detergent instead
  of soap solution for a bit hard cleaning.
• Wash the gold or silver trophy after application
  of mild detergent powder/solution and wipe down
  it with soft cloth or silverware drying pad.
• Don't use any abrasive material at all to create
  scratches on the surface.

• Give Your Gold or Silver Trophies A Spa Bath
• Material needed An Aluminum Foil, Baking Soda
  (Soda Bi-carb), and Boiling Water.
• For more strong stains, we recommend the use of
  spa bath method using baking soda like washing
  agent to clean your trophy using the following
  process.
• Wash Your Trophy with Mint Solutions
• Toothpaste is a handy mint containing a solution
  for harmless washing of your gold or silver
  trophies and medals. Apply toothpaste cream on
  the surfaces of trophy and rub gently with
  fingers.

2 - How to Clean Your Bronze Pewter Trophies?

• Gold and silver metal trophies are getting
  tarnish effects with the pace of time, but pewter
  and bronze are not. Instead, these metals are
  looking grubby over time. You can remove dirt on
  the surfaces by simple cloth cleaning.
• Staining or grubby look can be treated by plain
  water wash or with mild detergents or solutions
  described in the section of gold and silver
  trophy cleaning.

3 - How to Clean Your Copper Steel Trophies?

• Copper and steel are tougher metals than gold and
  silver in many aspects. Therefore, cleaning or
  washing of stainless steel or copper trophies
  becomes an easy task. Most of the homes have
  stainless steel and copper utensils, and they
  know the safe methods to wash them.
• You can apply the most suitable one for your
  steel or copper-based trophies and awards. Mostly
  plain water or detergent washing is enough to
  refresh your metal trophies.

4 - How to Clean Your Glass  Crystal Trophies?

• Glass, acrylic, and crystals are delicate
  material in washing too. They need the utmost
  care while applying chemicals. Soapy water is a
  good way to remove light marks. Glass cleaner
  solutions become essentiality for stubborn dirt
  and stains. Be careful while washing or drying
  glass or crystal trophies and use a non-abrasive
  or soft cloth.

5 - How to Clean Your Plastic Resin Trophies?

• Plastic and resins are chemical-based material
  and tough to get deterioration over time by
  weathering effects. However, staining by other
  ways is possible and plain water washing or
  detergent or baking soda washing is the best way
  to clean plastic trophies or resin trophies. A
  soft cloth is a good way to dry it up.

6 - How to Clean Your Marble Trophies?

• We know the marble base is a very common
  component in various trophies, plaques, and
  awards. However, marble may be soft or hard by
  types. So, soft types of marbles need care while
  cleaning with acidic solutions. In most cases,
  plain water or detergent water washing proves
  adequate methods to remove dirt and stains on
  marble parts of a trophy.

7 - How to Clean Your Wood Trophies?

• Polished woods when used in trophy making it
  hardly demand any treatment other than cleaning
  dust with a cloth or a wind blower. You can use
  soft cloth or brush to remove dirt over the
  surfaces. Wood polish is the best way to bring
  the charm back.
