6. Maintenance and Care
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your model, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Dusting: Regularly dust the model using a soft brush or a can of compressed air to remove accumulated dust. Avoid using abrasive materials.
- Cleaning: For more thorough cleaning, gently wipe the blocks with a damp cloth and mild soap solution. Avoid submerging the model in water. Ensure all parts are dry before re-displaying.
- Sail Care: The fabric sails should be handled gently. If they become creased, light steaming from a distance may help, but avoid direct heat.
- Storage: If disassembling for storage, keep all pieces organized in sealed containers to prevent loss and damage.
7. Troubleshooting
