Daily protection
The most taboo of rulers is the scratch and blurring of carved values, so rulers become the most cherished articles in stationery. What should we pay attention to when using rulers?
- First of all, the use of rulers should be correct. For example, when demarcating materials, it is better not to use plastic rulers, which will be easily scratched. Many people will make a mistake, that is, when drawing the line, it will be very fast, and then because of the slippery characteristics of the ruler, it will be along the ruler, so that it will flower the value, so the speed is moderate.
- The ruler should not be mixed with a knife or metal stationery. When mixed with a pen, it must be covered with a pen cap.
- We must prevent sun exposure and long-term sunshine. Especially plastic rulers do not have good heat resistance and will be deformed.
- It’s better not to clean the ruler with a brush, which means that you don’t dirty the ruler as much as possible.
