Troubleshooting
Scoop feels flimsy or bends easily
Ensure you are not exceeding the intended capacity for the medium size (notional 1500g). For heavier materials, consider using a larger size scoop or making multiple smaller scoops.
Material sticks to the scoop
Wipe the scoop with a slightly damp cloth before scooping sticky or powdery materials. Ensure the scoop is clean and dry before use.
Colour seems to be fading
This can occur with prolonged exposure to UV light. Store the scoop away from direct sunlight when not in use.
