Troubleshooting

Lid is difficult to close or open

Ensure there is no debris obstructing the rim or closure. Gently flex the lid if it feels tight, but avoid forcing it. Sometimes, a slight adjustment of the lid's position can help.

Design appears to be fading or scratched

This tin is not indestructible. Avoid harsh cleaning agents and abrasive materials. For minor scratches, they are often a sign of regular use and character. For significant fading, it may indicate prolonged exposure to sunlight.

Contents do not seem fresh

While this tin offers good protection, it is not hermetically sealed. For long-term storage, consider using a dedicated humidor or ensuring tobacco is stored with a humidity control pack. Ensure the lid is closed securely after each use.
