At SelegnaHome, we craft our products with diatomaceous earth to bring you natural elegance and functionality. To ensure your items continue to perform beautifully over time, please follow these simple care and cleaning instructions.

Air Drying: After exposure to moisture, allow your diatomaceous earth product to air dry naturally. Its quick-drying properties will help it return to its original state without intervention.

Avoid Prolonged Saturation: While the material is highly absorbent, avoid leaving it in standing water or overly wet environments for extended periods.

Avoid Dropping: Diatomaceous earth can be brittle if subjected to impacts. Handle your product with care to prevent cracks or chips.

Smooth Surfaces: Place the product on flat, stable surfaces to maintain its integrity.

Over time, your diatomaceous earth product may accumulate stains or its absorbency might diminish due to clogged pores.

Here’s how to refresh it:

Wipe Down: Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe away any surface dust or debris.

Damp Cloth: For light stains, a slightly damp cloth can be used. Ensure the product dries completely afterward.

Use Our Provided Sanding Paper:

Each SelegnaHome product comes with a piece of sanding paper specifically designed for maintaining your diatomaceous earth items.

Sanding Process:

Gently Rub: Lightly sand the stained or clogged areas using gentle, circular motions. This will remove the thin surface layer that’s holding onto stains or has clogged pores.

Even Out the Surface: To maintain a uniform appearance, consider sanding the entire surface evenly.

Clean Off Residue: After sanding, wipe away any dust with a dry cloth.

Air Dry: Allow the product to air dry in a well-ventilated area before resuming use.

Avoid Chemical Cleaners: Do not use soaps, detergents, or abrasive cleaners, as they can clog the pores and reduce absorbency.

Sunlight Exposure: Occasionally placing the product in sunlight can help eliminate odors and enhance its antibacterial properties.

Storage: If storing the product, ensure it is completely dry and kept in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Reduced Absorbency: If you notice decreased absorbency, it’s likely due to clogged pores from dust or mineral deposits. Use the sanding paper to gently refresh the surface.

Persistent Stains or Odors: For stubborn stains or odors, a more thorough sanding may be necessary. Ensure you remove enough of the surface layer to reach the fresh diatomaceous earth beneath.

Cracks or Chips: Minor imperfections can sometimes be smoothed out with the sanding paper. However, significant damage may require replacement.

By following these care and cleaning guidelines, you’ll ensure that your SelegnaHome products remain as beautiful and functional as the day you received them. Thank you for choosing SelegnaHome—where thoughtful design meets natural beauty.
