Whether you're a consumer, a retailer, or a manufacturer, proper storage and handling play a crucial role in ensuring the long-lasting effectiveness of Intercept. Let's explore some essential tips and guidelines to make the most out of Intercept protection.

1. Store in a Clean and Dry Environment

Intercept is highly effective in various temperature and humidity conditions, but storing your items in a clean and dry environment enhances its performance. Keep your Intercept-protected items away from dampness and ensure the storage area is free from dust and debris.

2.  Avoid Exposure to Corrosive Gasses

Intercept works by reacting with and neutralizing corrosive gasses. While it excels at this, minimizing exposure to such gasses further extends its effectiveness. Be mindful of storage areas near industrial zones, combustion sources, or areas with high pollution levels.

3. Utilize Intercept Packaging

Intercept Silver & Jewelry Care offers a range of anti-tarnish packaging and storage systems. Take advantage of Intercept packaging to provide an additional layer of protection for your items. This is especially beneficial for retailers and manufacturers looking to deliver Intercept-protected products to customers.

4. Separate Different Metals

If you're storing multiple metal items, consider keeping different metals separated. Intercept is effective against galvanic coupling (corrosion between joined dissimilar metals), but separating them adds an extra layer of protection, ensuring each item receives individual Intercept care.

5. Handle Items with Clean Hands

When handling Intercept-protected items, make sure your hands are clean to avoid introducing external contaminants. Intercept is non-abrasive and will not scratch items, but maintaining cleanliness during handling contributes to the overall preservation effort.

6. Regularly Check Intercept Material

Intercept provides corrosion protection for up to 10 years per mil of material. Periodically check Intercept material for any signs of wear, tears, or damage. If you notice any issues, consider replacing or reinforcing the Intercept material to maintain optimal protection.

7. Educate Your Team and Customers

If you're a retailer or manufacturer, educate your team and customers about Intercept care. Provide guidelines on proper storage and handling, and emphasize the benefits of Intercept™ in preserving the quality of metal items over time.

By following these practical tips, you can maximize the effectiveness of Intercept and ensure that your cherished items remain tarnish and corrosion-free for years to come. Intercept Silver & Jewelry Care is committed to offering the finest anti-tarnish solutions, and with these guidelines, you can make Intercept work its magic to the fullest.
