How should I clean the Puss in Boots cutout?

Can I fold the cutout for storage?
Yes, the cutout is designed to be carefully folded along its original creases for compact storage. When storing, ensure it is laid flat in a dry, cool environment to prevent damage and maintain its shape.
Is this an official Shrek product?

What material is the cutout made from?
The Puss in Boots Mini Cardboard Cutout is made from high-quality, durable cardboard, specifically chosen for its ability to stand freely and display detailed graphics.
Troubleshooting
The cutout is unstable or keeps falling over.
Ensure the easel stand on the back is fully extended and locked into its supporting position. Place the cutout on a flat, even surface. If it's in a high-traffic area or on a soft carpet, you might need to gently adjust its position or place a small, flat weight on the base of the easel for added stability.
The cutout arrived with a slight bend or crease.
For minor bends, carefully place the cutout flat on a hard surface and lay heavy, flat objects (like large books) evenly over the affected area for several hours or overnight. Avoid applying excessive pressure or trying to sharply bend it back, as this may cause further damage.
The colors appear to be fading over time.
Color fading is usually caused by prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Ensure your cutout is displayed away from windows or any area that receives direct, strong sunlight. Storing it flat in a dark, dry place when not in use will also help preserve its vibrancy.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
To ensure your Puss in Boots Mini Cardboard Cutout remains in excellent condition, follow these simple guidelines for setup, placement, and care.
Setup
- Unfold Carefully: Gently unfold the cardboard cutout along its pre-creased lines.
- Erect Easel Stand: On the back of the cutout, locate the integrated easel stand. Pull it outwards and downwards until it locks into place, creating a stable triangular support.
- Position: Place the cutout on a flat, stable surface. Ensure the easel is fully extended and providing firm support.
Compatibility
- Indoor Environments: This cutout is designed exclusively for indoor use. Avoid placing it outdoors.
- Optimal Placement: Choose a location away from high-traffic areas where it might be accidentally bumped or knocked over. Keep it away from direct sunlight, heat sources (like radiators or fireplaces), and areas with high humidity, which can cause fading, warping, or damage to the cardboard.
Care
- Cleaning: To clean dust or light smudges, gently wipe the surface with a dry, soft cloth. For minor marks, a slightly damp (not wet) cloth can be used, but avoid harsh chemical cleaners.
- Storage: When not in use, carefully fold the cutout flat along its original creases. Store it in a cool, dry place, preferably in its original packaging or protected from bends and moisture.
- Handling: Always lift the cutout from its base or sturdy sections. Avoid bending, creasing, or putting undue pressure on any part of the character image to prevent damage.
