Our Top Recommended Ways to Clean and Maintain Your Pedestal

Our elite collegiate pedestals are the best way to protect your pride and optimize the condition of your most valued pieces of sports memorabilia. Your commitment to your team speaks volumes, we understand that obtaining unique team collectibles is a feat and you deserve to keep your dedication secure.

Our pedestals are uniquely created to overcome common obstacles to memorabilia displays and preservation. While we ensure that our pedestals will maximize your collectible’s lifespan, there are different things you can do to make sure your display stays in perfect condition.

How to protect your collegiate pedestal from different environmental conditions over time

The carefully designed clear acrylic box you can choose to have on the top of your pedestal is not just to beautifully show off your item but to protect your collectible from the harsh damage of direct sunlight and UV rays.

If you want to optimize the preservation of your displayed item, we recommend placing your pedestal away from a window to minimize UV exposure. 

Additionally, indoor direct lights like halogen and incandescent are more harmful than LED as they emit heat and UV over time. We recommend placing your pedestal in rooms with LED lights over other types, if light exposure is a concern of yours. 

As an added caution you can take, you can rotate your displayed item seasonally to create an even amount of light exposure on every surface.

The best ways to clean and maintain the upkeep of your collegiate memorabilia pedestal

Your memorabilia is not the only decorative item on display but, your pedestal itself is a polished statement piece worth upkeep. All of our pedestals are built with high-end medium-density fiberboard, a durable and versatile engineered wood product.

To keep your pedestal fresh and bright, you can ensure that it stays dry and can clean off any potential accumulating dust or fingerprints with a microfiber cloth.

If you wish to spray clean your pedestal to give it maximum shine, we recommend always spraying your cloth never directly on the pedestal and using products like specialized plastic cleaners or mild soap with water.

MDF can be damaged if you apply products such as ammonia, bleach, or other harsh abrasives which is why it is so important to carefully follow our care guidelines when trying to maintain your pedestal.

Preserving Your Pedestal is a Long-Term Investment in the Team Traditions That You Love

Your commitment to your team’s legacy and heritage is lifelong so, give your prized pedestal the same respect and lasting treatment it deserves.
