Deposit and display your model figures have always been two unavoidable problems for Garage Kit lovers. A beautiful display method must be something that all collectors of Garage Kit (models, toys, figures, dolls, etc.) are thinking hard about. In addition to pleasing themselves, they must also impress the eyes of visiting friends. If you’re just a light mod collector, maybe you don’t need to worry too much about it. However, when your collection exceeds a certain value, it is estimated that you need to learn a lot about how to store and display your more and more treasures!
From the point of view of manual preservation
1. Choose a relatively closed display environment
In order to be able to play Garage model figures kit at any time, many players will directly put it in a convenient place, but this is not very good for the figure. Long-term exposure to an open environment will attract a lot of dust, which will affect viewing. At the same time, it will also oxidize the paint layer on the surface of the Garage model figures kit, which will greatly reduce the gloss of the paint color over time, and even damage the paint surface.
2. Avoid direct sunlight and high temperature
Direct sunlight will increase the temperature of the figure’s surface, causing the Garage model figures kit to turn “yellow” in the skin color and some light-colored paint parts, directly damaging the paint surface. Secondly, the main material of the figure is PVC, which is lower in hardness than ABS, another common material, but its hardness is determined by how much plasticizer is added. The more plasticizer added, the softer the performance of PVC. The ultraviolet rays in the sun will accelerate the degradation of the plasticizer, reduce the hardness of the figure, and soften the material of the figure; at the same time, the precipitated plasticizer will remain on the surface of the paint layer, which looks like “oil”, but is actually Plasticizer for this component of the pan. Therefore, in order to avoid the damage caused by the sunlight and high temperature of the Garage model figures kit and prolong their lifespan, it must be placed in a low-temperature environment away from sunlight, and an anti-ultraviolet protective film can be attached to the display cabinet to isolate the ultraviolet rays.
3. Locked
Fire prevention and anti-theft must also pay attention to children. If you want to avoid tragedy as much as possible, be sure to lock your beloved Garage model figures kit.
From the perspective of manual display
1. LED cold light is used for lighting
In order to avoid the sun’s ultraviolet rays and high temperature, the place where the figure is displayed is usually relatively dry, cool, and the light is poor. So players will choose to install lighting in the display cabinet. Some players like to install cool laser lights in the display cabinets, but in fact, the operation of spotlights will generate high temperature and high ultraviolet intensity, which will damage the figure as mentioned above. Tungsten filament lamps generate high heat, which is fine in winter, but in summer the weather is hot, and the temperature of the display space is also relatively high. Using tungsten filament lamps to illuminate the opponents will also cause greater damage. The most recommended is LED cold light, try to choose a lower wattage.
2. Recommended glass display showcase
Some players will choose plastic display cabinets such as acrylic, which are cheap and easy to customize. But from a professional point of view, the display effect of the glass display cabinet is cleaner, and the visual effect presented is clearer, which is more suitable for high-precision ornamental models such as hand-made models. This is why hand-made manufacturers choose glass showcases in the landing exhibition activities.
Another thing to note is that although the glass display cabinet can display and reflect the charm of the model collection to the greatest extent, the load-bearing issue between layers must be considered when choosing a glass display cabinet. However, if you are placing relatively high-weight collections such as statues, then the load-bearing considerations of each floor must be the primary consideration, otherwise the collapse will really waste years of hard work. If unnecessary losses are caused for the sake of beauty, then choose a stronger wooden bookcase at the beginning!
