Frequently asked questions

What are the most important things a customer should know to keep their handcrafted wooden pen looking beautiful and lasting a long time?

Regular application of wood wax is crucial for maintaining your pen's luster and protecting the wood. We offer our specially formulated Swave Creations wood butter, available for a small fee, to help preserve its unique beauty.

How often should I apply wood wax to my pen?

We recommend applying wood wax every few months, or whenever the wood starts to look dull or dry. This keeps the wood hydrated, protected, and highlights its natural grain.

What if my pen gets wet?

If your pen gets wet, gently wipe it dry immediately with a soft cloth. Avoid prolonged submersion or leaving it damp, as excessive moisture can damage the wood.

Can I use other types of wax or polish on my Swave Creations pen?

For best results and to avoid potentially damaging the unique wood, we highly recommend using our specially formulated Swave Creations wood butter. It's designed to nourish and protect our handcrafted pens.

Are there any specific things customers should definitely *avoid* doing to make sure their unique wooden pen doesn't get damaged?

To preserve your pen's beauty and integrity, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and excessive contact with water. These elements can cause warping, fading, or other damage to the natural wood.

Do you have any special recommendations for cleaning or maintaining the wood itself, or if a pen has an engraving?

For optimal care, keep your wooden pen "buttered" with wood wax. This not only cleans but also nourishes and protects the wood, enhancing its natural grain and ensuring the longevity and clarity of any engravings.

Will an engraved pen require different care?

Engraved pens require the same loving care as non-engraved pens. Regular waxing will help protect the wood and keep your custom engraving looking clear and vibrant over time.

Where can I purchase Swave Creations wood butter?

Our specially formulated wood butter is available directly through our website on our accessories page or you can contact us at [[swavecreationllc@gmail.com]] to order.
