Your package contains two small bottles: one filled with talcum powder for the interior, one with silicone oil for the exterior and conditioning. Instructions for both are detailed below.

• The inside of the bag is unlined latex and may become sticky over time. This is the nature of the material.

• To reduce stickiness, lightly dust the interior with the included talcum powder, or apply a small amount of silicone oil to a soft cloth and wipe through. Do not use both — mixing powder and oil inside the bag will cause clumping and is difficult to clean.

• Pay attention to corners and seams where stickiness tends to concentrate.

• Do this whenever the interior feels tacky or after extended periods of storage.

• Allow the interior to air fully before closing the bag.

• To restore and maintain the signature latex sheen, apply a latex-specific silicone oil to a cloth first. A small bottle of silicone oil is included in the package.

• Buff gently in light, circular motions to evenly revive the surface.

• Avoid petroleum-based products, generic oils, or leather conditioners, as these will degrade latex over time.

The metal frame sits unbound between layers of fabric & latex, so it may move in position. If it shifts, simply ease it back into place.

The handle is metallic and may tarnish with prolonged exposure to moisture or perfume.

• Dry the handle thoroughly after any contact with water.

• Avoid contact with perfume, hairspray, salt water and alcohol-based products.

• Polish occasionally with a dry microfibre cloth.

• Wipe gently with a soft, lint-free cloth dampened with cool water.

• For deeper cleaning, use a small amount of pH-neutral, fragrance-free soap diluted in cool water. Never apply directly to the surface.

• Dry with a clean cloth. Do not leave moisture on the material or inside the bag. Keep open until fully dry.

• Do not machine wash. Do not submerge.

• Store in a cool, dark, dry place away from direct sunlight, UV light, and heat sources. UV exposure causes latex to discolor and degrade.

• Do not store in airtight plastic bags. Allow the material to breathe, use a dust bag or a breathable cloth pouch.

• Store flat whenever possible. Avoid folding or compressing for extended periods, as this may result in permanent creasing.

• If deformation occurs, lightly apply warm water to a soft cloth and press gently over the affected area. A flat weight may also be used to encourage the material to return to form.

• Keep away from copper, bronze, and untreated metals, which can cause irreversible staining on latex and degradation of the material.

Latex develops character with time. Minor patina and variation in sheen are not flaws — they are evidence of a material that is genuinely alive. With proper care, your SKINLESS piece will remain a statement for years.
