# Care and Storage
Ensure that the **Frame** is stored in a manner that will protect it from bending. Either store the Frame flat or hang it on a secure hook/fastener. You can purchase the [**Trace Case**](https://www.shapertools.com/store/product/trace-case) in the [Accessories Store](https://www.shapertools.com/store/collection/accessories).
Don’t store the Frame where it will be exposed to direct sunlight, excessive heat, or cold.
Keep liquids away from your Frame. If you do happen to spill liquid on the Frame, clean it off with a lightly damp cloth. Do not clean the Frame with solvents, as this may damage with surface.
