How to maintain your custom deckbox

Why maintain your deckbox?

Your DeckSmith deckbox is a handcrafted item designed to last. Made with high-precision 3D printing and hand-painted, it deserves a minimum of care to maintain its shine over the years.

Daily best practices

Storage

Keep your deckbox in a dry place, away from direct sunlight. UV rays can alter colors over time. A cloth carrying bag is ideal for transportation.

Cleaning

A simple soft, dry cloth is enough to dust off your deckbox. For light stains, use a slightly damp cloth — never use chemicals or solvents that could damage the paint.

Handling

Open and close your deckbox with care. The opening mechanism is designed to be robust, but repeated rough handling could wear the hinges prematurely.

Special finishes

If your deckbox has a Starlight Nebula, Comet, or Twilight finish, these special effect finishes are protected by varnish but remain more sensitive to scratches than classic colors. Avoid contact with abrasive objects.

Summary

• Store away from sun and moisture
• Clean with a soft cloth
• Handle with care
• Protect special finishes

With these simple steps, your deckbox will stay as beautiful as day one!
