How to Display a Luna Moth Magnet Without Damaging It

Quick answer

Clean the surface first, place the magnet gently, avoid sliding it, and keep it away from heat and moisture to protect the design.

Steps to display your Luna Moth magnet safely

1. 1. Clean the surface: Wipe the area where you plan to place the magnet with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust, grease, or grime. A clean surface helps the magnet stick firmly and prevents debris from scratching the design. Avoid using harsh cleaners or abrasive pads, as residue can damage the magnet's surface.
2. 2. Position the magnet gently: Hold the magnet by its edges and place it flat against the surface. Lower it straight on without sliding or dragging it across the metal. This prevents scratches on the printed illustration. Sliding the magnet back and forth to adjust position is the most common cause of scuffs.
3. 3. Check the grip daily: Once placed, give the magnet a light tug to ensure it's secure. On vertical surfaces like a fridge or locker, a loose magnet can fall and chip the edges. Reapply if needed. If the magnet feels weak, wipe both the magnet and the surface again to remove any hidden dust.
4. 4. Avoid heat and direct sunlight: Keep the magnet away from stovetops, ovens, radiators, or windows with prolonged sun exposure. Heat can warp the thin magnet or fade the ink, while UV rays may yellow the coating over time. For outdoor car use, park in the shade when possible or remove the magnet during long hot spells.
5. 5. Store flat when not in use: If you remove the magnet, store it flat in a dry place away from other metal objects. Stacking magnets or placing them loose in a drawer can cause scratches or demagnetization. A small padded envelope or a felt-lined box keeps the magnet safe between uses.
