hi stam owners!!!

i have a question about the metal on stam, is it easy to tarnish.
how to protect it?!

it seems like its easy to get scratch.....:crybaby:
and i just bought my stam hobo within a month....

i want to take care my baby..........

so......please share your tip with me.

thanks in advance
 
There isn't really anything you can do. The hardware may get scratch and I think getting over that hurdle will help in the long run. Because I think you'll be super disappointed if you try really hard to keep it from scratching and it gets scratched. I have one tiny line on one of the kisslocks and I think it gives it character. It's not so much a scratch as a line that is lighter than the rest of the kisslock. I may take a picture of it this weekend to show yall.
 
so does the chain itself become tarnish?!
should i purchase brasso to polish it?!

I recommend you try a jewelry polishing cloth instead (test a small spot on the chain first). They sell them with a cleaner/treatment on one side and plain cloth the other. I personally wouldn't try anything else, especially not a liquid or paste polish. Too harsh!
 
My chain hasn't become tarnished. I've had it since January. I think if it were to tarnish, it would take a while for it to happen. Prada gave you a great idea. I would try that, but please don't put any chemicals onto the hardware.
