Care Tips for Gold Statues: • To clean gold-painted surfaces, avoid cold water and touching the face. Instead, use a soft cotton cloth to gently remove dust. • Prioritize gentle cleaning methods, refraining from abrasive materials like steel wool or metal brushes that could mar the surface. • Minimize direct contact with gold statues to prevent oil transfer from hands, which can accelerate tarnishing and diminish their longevity.
