Hello, once more Jim here with http://www.hh-collectibles.com/ with a new posting about how to care for clean up generally up keep your collectibles.
The biggest challenge all collectors run into is the collection of dust on their collections that they start to aquire. Keeping them in their original boxes, or putting them in Curio Cabinets, or Glass or Plexiglass display boxes, will keep some of the dust off of your object you are collecting, but you will always at some point be faced with the need to dust your collection, whether it is Diecast Cars, Tractors or Tanks, or a Doll.
You want to stay away from detergents or oils that will either strip the shine off of your collectible. In other words no Endust, or Sunlight. You will want to use a Clean Cotten Cloth with water and gently wipe off the object. Do not wipe to hard or with to much force. Especially if the object has very Precision detals.
If you find that the dust covering your object is not coming off with just water, use a 3 to one Water/ Windex mixture. This will allow the Windex to clean off any oily dust that has settled on your collection without removing any shine from the object itself.
Please check out http://www.hh-collectibles.com/ if you are interested in purchasing or adding anything new to your collection.
Please let me know if you have any questions comments or challenges. Thanks.
