Therefore, cleaning the inside of the bag is an important thing that is necessary. Avoid using harsh chemicals that can damage the bag material and make sure the bag is completely dry before storing it.
2. Use natural dryers
If your bag gets wet, let it dry naturally in the open air or use a gentle air dryer. Avoid using hot dryers such as hair dryers, because excessive heat can damage the bag material.
3. Store in a dry place with good air circulation
Choose a storage place that is dry and protected from moisture. This aims to prevent the bag from getting moldy, because mold can grow quickly in humid air.
If the bag is stored in the cupboard, you can use camphor to reduce moisture. However, it is recommended to check it periodically and remove the bag to prevent mold from growing.
4. Use a dust bag
Use a storage bag or dust bag to protect the bag from dust and dirt when not in use. Doing this also aims to maintain good air circulation, avoiding the risk of friction or scratches, as well as liquid spills.
5. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight
Keep the bag away from direct sunlight, because UV rays can damage the color and texture of the bag material and can damage the bag more quickly.
6. Don't hang
Avoid storing bags stacked or hanging. This can cause the texture of the bag to change and make the bag easy to peel, causing the bag's durability to decrease.
It's best if you can store the bag by standing it up and arranging it neatly on a shelf or storage cupboard to maintain the bag's original shape.
Those are some tips to keep bags durable and free from mold. Hopefully these tips can be useful for keeping your bag well maintained and durable. Good luck!
