The manufacturer, Epic Armoury, recommends the regular use of maintenance silicone or silicone spray to keep the latex coating flexible, prevent it from drying out, and increase its tear resistance. Additionally, the weapons should be protected from extreme, prolonged exposure to sunlight, heavy soiling should be removed with water, and the product should be stored flat or on its pommel (never on its tip) in a cool, dry place. For storage, it is also recommended to wrap the weapon in a cloth to prevent it from sticking to plastic surfaces.
