Note to Pupils:
Preserving Moulded Objects
- Varnishing:
- Applying a coat of varnish helps protect moulded objects from dust, moisture, and wear, enhancing their durability and appearance.
2. Painting:
- Adding a layer of paint not only adds color but also acts as a protective barrier, preventing the moulded object from deteriorating due to environmental factors.
3. Keeping in a Dry Place:
- Storing moulded objects in a dry environment helps prevent mold and mildew growth. Moisture can be detrimental to the integrity of certain materials.
4. Wrapping in Plastic:
- Placing moulded objects in plastic wrap or bags helps shield them from dust and environmental elements, maintaining their original condition.
5. Displaying in a Cabinet:
- Placing moulded objects in a cabinet with glass doors protects them from physical damage while still allowing them to be visible. It also reduces exposure to dust and air pollutants.
Evaluation:
- Name three ways to preserve moulded objects.
- Why is it important to preserve moulded objects?
