			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="Coulson Macleod canvas care" href="http://www.coulsonmacleod.com/other.html" target="_blank">Coulson Macleod</a> canvases are printed using pigmented inks that are UV stable and sealed with UV protecting varnish and, if looked after correctly, will last for many years. Typically this can be in excess of 75 to 100 years.</p>
<p>Here are a few suggestions to help you to look after your canvas.</p>
<ul>
<li>Avoid handling as much as possible to prevent scuffs and scratching.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Avoid displaying in direct sunlight. Although UV stable inks and varnish are used, direct sunlight will reduce the lifespan of your canvas.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Avoid displaying your canvas in areas of extreme and fluctuating temperatures and humidity.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Never clean using a damp cloth, solvents, or cleaning fluids.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Should dust settle on your canvas then remove with a feather duster or use a soft brush to wipe while using a vacuum. Do not let the vacuum nozzle touch the canvas surface.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Avoid contact with moisture. Should any moisture come in contact with your canvas then dab gently with a dry, lint-free, cloth to remove and avoid wiping and rubbing.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Canvas is a natural product and will stretch over time. Your canvas will be framed onto high-quality double-laminated kiln-dried stretcher bars. Should your canvas appear to sag, these enable you to re-tension your canvas by carefully tapping the wedges.</li>
</ul>
