Use & Care

• When you bend the metal, you may hear noises, which are completely normal sounds of molecules shifting against one another.
• After each use, wash gently with mild dish soap and a soft cloth or sponge, then dry completely with a clean cloth.
• Avoid using abrasive scrubbers, metal polishes, or cleansers, as these will scratch the soft surface.
• To restore shine to a dull surface, make a gentle polishing paste by mixing baking soda with mild dish soap or water.
• Due to low melting temperature, keep away from heat sources and open flames.
