CARE INSTRUCTIONS
To keep your Artwerx Australia Wind Spinner clean and looking it’s best you can clean it in the dishwasher.
For stubborn stains you can use a stainless steel creme cleanser. However if you reside close to salt water we recommend treating your spinner with a coat of WD40, Innox or lanolin.
All items can be purchased from your local hardware store.
To keep your Artwerx Australia wind spinner clean and looking it’s best simply hose down or wash in warm soapy water. And dry it off with a soft cloth to ensure it doesn’t scratch.
The product you receive in your packaging is a clean cut artwork there will be no visible rust. The weathering steel is coated with a fine layer of oil to help protect the material in storage, so it may delay the rust process once you hang it outside. You can hurry the rust process along by washing your piece down with soapy water and you should start to see the rust developing within 24-72 hours. If the rust is not showing please repeat the process.
Your product will drip rust for the first 6 months to 1 year or when the rust is disturbed, so please take caution as to where you hang the piece as the rust will stain the area directly below on the floor.
There is an additional swivel packaged with your artwork, over time the swivel will become infected by the rust and will need replacing. If need be additional swivels can be purchased from fishing stores.
There is no need to clean this piece, and we consider any minor variations or marks a characteristic of the artwork.
