Wood Articles are easy to take care of as they just need some annual upkeep to keep them looking as they did when they were first carved. Moisture causes cracks in the sculpture as the wood contracts and expands in different temperatures. Our wood has little to no moisture in it assuring that the sculpture is not going to crack in its journey into different climates. Here are some simple tips to keep your statue in good condition:

How do I keep my temple clean ?

It is very easy to maintain the wooden temple purchased from Coral Crafts. Our wooden temples do not require any special cleaning.

You only need to dust the temple to make sure that no dirt builds up. Regular use of dusting with clean cotton cloth is recommended for long durability of the temple.

How do I remove scratches from the temple?

The use of Paste Wax is recommended to avoid any minor scratches. The use of wax will fill in the scratch grooves and make them disappear.

Home Made Remedy for Scratches:
1) Use black tea to disguise scratches.

Do not use herbal or green tea; the black tea produces the color you want to match the wood.

Place the tea bag in a cup and pour 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of hot water over it.

Let it steep for at least 2 minutes. If your wood is very dark, use a black tea bag that has been steeped for at least 3 minutes. The longer the bag is steeped, the darker the color.

Dip a cotton swab into the tea and dab it on the scratch.

Use a paper towel to immediately wipe away any tea that gets on the surrounding wood so that it doesn’t get stained.

2) For Darker Wood Finish apply Coffee Paste:

Add coffee granules to a small bowl and mix it with hot water to make a thick paste.
Using a tissue paper or cotton cloth, rub the paste into the scratch, taking care not to get the paste on the surrounding wood.
