Maintenance Tips

1. Dust Regularly: Use a feather duster, soft white cloth, or vacuum with a soft brush attachment to remove dust from the polymer shades. 

2. Clean Gently: For stubborn stains, wipe the shades with a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and warm water. Dry immediately with a clean, soft cloth.

3. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use glass cleaners, abrasive compounds, ammonia, or bleach, as they can damage or discolor the shades.

4. Maintain Metal Components: Clean the brushed nickel trim and metal rods with a soft cloth soaked in detergent and warm water; rinse thoroughly and dry. Remove scuff marks with pre-softened paste wax, following the instructions on the label. 

5. Use Appropriate Bulbs: Use bulbs up to 150 watts for all sizes of Nelson Bubble Lamps, except for the Small Saucer and Small Saucer Sconce, which should use bulbs up to 60 watts.
