About Print Longevity & Care
Understanding Your Printed BARELA Case
Your new phone case features a vibrant, full-color print that's designed to be as tough as it is stylish. However, it's important to understand that all printed cases will naturally fade over timedue to daily wear. This isn't a defect, but a natural characteristic of how printed products age.
Why does this happen?
The print on your case is durable, but it's not impervious to the world. Three main factors contribute to gradual fading:
- Body Chemistry: The natural oils and slight acidity in hand sweat slowly break down the inks.
- Everyday Chemicals: Direct and repeated contact with alcohol-based hand sanitizers, lotions, perfumes, and sunscreens can accelerate fading.
- Friction: The simple act of pulling your phone from pockets and bags creates micro-abrasions that soften the print's vibrancy.
