4. Maintenance

Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your tomtoc Portfolio Case.

4.1 Cleaning Instructions

• Exterior: For general cleaning, wipe the exterior surface with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn stains, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth. Allow to air dry completely.
• Interior: Gently wipe the microfiber lining with a dry, soft cloth to remove dust or debris. For minor spills, lightly dampen a cloth with water and blot the affected area. Do not saturate.
• Zippers: Keep zippers free of dirt and debris. If a zipper becomes stiff, a small amount of zipper lubricant or graphite (from a pencil) can be applied.

• Avoid exposing the case to extreme temperatures or direct sunlight for prolonged periods.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or solvents, as these can damage the material.
