Cleaning Your Cards
Spilled coffee, sticky fingers, sticky cards from a long night of 57 Card Hearts? These decks wash clean.
Start with cold water and a soft cloth — gently rub both sides of the affected cards. Rinse in a bucket of clean cold water, pat dry with a soft cloth (skip paper towels — they shed lint), and lay the cards out on a bath towel in a shaded, well-ventilated spot. Flip them once so both sides air-dry fully.
For tougher messes, repeat with a small amount of mild, non-abrasive soap like Dove. Rinse the soap off completely afterward.
Avoid Hot Water and Hot Areas
Plastic handles spills and rough use. What it does not handle is heat — heat warps cards and can degrade the printed faces.
Skip the dishwasher and the washing machine. Keep the deck out of direct sunlight, off hot patio tables, and away from any heat source. A cool, shaded play area gives the deck the longest life and the best feel in your hand.
Damaged Cards
One bent or damaged card does not end a deck. We sell replacements for every design — see Replacement Cards for individual cards or full hand sets.
Storing Your Cards
Store decks in a cool, shaded spot. Long exposure to direct light fades the printed faces over time, and heat can curl the cards. A drawer, a cabinet, or the original tuck box all work well.
Breaking and Bending
Plastic decks are tough but not indestructible — bending the corners hard or yanking cards under tension can crease them permanently. Handle them like a good chef knife: deliberate, no force needed.
Have Fun and Enjoy Them
You bought these cards to play with — so play. The more games you run through them, the more they earn their place at your table.
