Care and storage tips for fabrics and metals
Dry suede garments if possible and air dry away from heat. Brush suede with a wire brush in circular motions after drying. Wrap cheese in vinegar-dampened cloth and store cool and dry. Store fat in a dry container and cook to remove moisture. Prepare iron or steel for painting by wire brushing unless heavily corroded, then apply crude oil or lubricating oil to loosen rust.
