Avoid the Damaging Effects of Humidity on Collectibles, Seasonal Storage and More
Madison, WI - With summer fast approaching, it’s important to know that the increase in humidity can cause damage to stored valuables. The warm, damp air can permeate storage containers, safes, tool boxes, cabinets and more. Unfortunately, this moist air can bring with it several unwanted problems such as rust, mold, mildew, fungus and odor.
Rechargeable silica gel dehumidifiers can help eliminate the problems caused by excess moisture in enclosed spaces. Silica gel is a desiccant, or drying agent, and is the highest capacity adsorbent available today. Comprised of tiny inter-connecting pores, silica gel attracts and holds moisture. Silica gel is inert, non-toxic and safe to use to protect foods, medicines, sensitive materials and much more. Even when it is saturated with moisture, silica gel looks and feels dry to the touch. Most often seen in small packs in shoe boxes and pill bottles, consumers can purchase larger rechargeable units to protect their valuables from moisture damage.
Available from The Rust Store, www.TheRustStore.com, rechargeable silica gel dehumidifiers help to eliminate rust, corrosion, oxidation and tarnish on tools, coin collections, silverware, jewelry, musical instruments and more. They can also protect seasonal storage, collectibles, clothing, and leather from mildew fungus, mold and odor. Furthermore, silica gel can protect photographs, stamp collections and documents from spotting, staining and cracking. Available in five different sizes, the rechargeable units are sized appropriately for most household applications.
Meant to be used in enclosed areas such as storage containers, safes, cabinets, cargo holds, closets, tool boxes and similar places, the rechargeable silica gel dehumidifiers are easy to use. The units simply need to be placed in the area to be protected. The indicator card on the unit will signal when it needs to be recharged. A few hours in the oven will reactivate the unit. (Detailed instructions are included with each unit.) The units can be reactivated indefinitely for a lifetime of protection.
The Rust Store's products include those for rust prevention, rust removal, rust conversion, moisture control and abrasives. The site, www.TheRustStore.com, features online shopping and helpful rust-related information. The Rust Store is operated by Wingra Direct LLC.
