To keep your plate in good condition, store it flat in its original clamshell or between two clean plastic sheets. Keep it out of direct sunlight and away from heat or sharp objects. Never bend or fold the plate.

Simply use baby wipes, mild soap and water, or hand sanitizer to wipe away paint. For stubborn areas, a little vegetable oil can help. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cloths. Let the plate air dry before storing.
