How to Safely Clean and Care for Your Fine Art Canvas Prints
Protecting Your Black and White Canvas Photography for Years to Come
Investing in museum-quality black and white canvas prints adds depth, elegance, and timeless style to any space. Whether you’re curating a luxury home gallery or showcasing limited-edition fine art, caring for your premium canvas wall art is essential to preserving its beauty.
Here’s everything you need to know to clean and care for your fine art canvas prints the right way.
🧼 1. Dust Regularly with a Dry, Soft Cloth
To keep your canvas prints looking their best:
- Use a clean, dry microfiber cloth
- Gently wipe in one direction (no circular motions)
- Avoid pressing too hard to prevent loosening the canvas
This removes surface dust and keeps the print crisp without damaging the archival ink or satin finish.
💧 2. Never Use Water or Cleaning Sprays
Canvas may look durable, but it's porous and sensitive to moisture. Avoid:
- Water, glass cleaner, or household sprays
- Paper towels (can scratch or shed fibers)
Moisture can cause warping, fading, or ink lifting over time. Our canvas prints, made with a cotton/polyester blend and sustainable radiata pine frames, are designed to last — but only with dry cleaning methods.
🌡️ 3. Avoid Direct Sunlight and High Humidity
Protect your print’s longevity by:
- Keeping it out of direct UV exposure (which fades tones over time)
- Avoiding rooms with high humidity (like bathrooms or enclosed sunrooms)
- Maintaining moderate indoor temperature to preserve frame tension
Our prints are made with archival-quality materials, but the environment matters. Hang your print in a cool, dry area to preserve deep blacks and rich tonal contrast.
🖐️ 4. Handle with Clean Hands or Gloves
When repositioning or moving your canvas:
- Handle from the frame edges
- Use clean, dry hands or white cotton gloves
- Avoid touching the printed surface directly
This prevents oils and smudges that can dull the matte or satin finish.
🧲 5. Hang Securely Using Provided Mounts
All of our canvas prints come with metallic back mounts and soft rubber bumpers for easy, stable hanging. Be sure to:
- Use wall hooks or screws rated for the canvas weight
- Ensure the print hangs flush to avoid frame stress
✅ Final Thoughts
Caring for your luxury canvas art prints is simple with the right steps. Whether you’ve chosen our standard 0.75" canvas for a minimalist touch or a bold 1.25" premium gallery wrap, regular care ensures your art remains timeless.
