Care and Durability

• The guide features an indestructible industrial-grade matte laminate that protects the full-color pages. This laminate also helps reduce glare and improves readability in various lighting conditions.
• The spiral binding is designed to be robust, preventing crushing and ensuring pages do not slip out, unlike traditional metal bindings.
• While durable, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures to preserve the print quality and material integrity over time.
• Clean the laminated pages with a soft, damp cloth if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
