Pain card

How to look after your synthetic cards

• You can write on the card with ballpoint, fountain pen or pencil. But due to the coating, once written on, the writing cannot be erased.
• DO NOT use solvent based marker pens - these can dissolve the protective coating.
• They can be fully immersed in water, but when soaked the protective coating becomes easily damaged - so do not scratch them when wet. Once dry, their scratch-resistance will return.
• Cleaning:
  • Use a common soft kitchen detergent or hand soap diluted with water. Products with low alcohol content (< 40%) can be used to disinfect the cards.
  • Gently wipe the surface with a soft cloth immersed with the mixture of soft detergent and water.
  • DO NOT use pure concentrated soap - always dilute!
  • DO NOT use of microfiber cloths because these type of cloths might polish the surface and/or damage the printed image.
  • DO NOT use all-purpose cleaning products that contain abrasive particles (like e.g. alum) as these products can damage the
    printed image.
  • Do NOT use of disinfectant products with high alcohol content (e.g. 60% isopropanol or 60% ethanol or a mixture of both) as
    these products can damage the printed image.

Laminated cards are wipe clean, but should not be immersed/soaked as the laminate may separate and the card inside can become damaged.

Please note that the laminated cards have been discontinued, and when re-printed they will be printed on the new synthetic material that is durable without laminating.
