So much so that it is very nice and I like doing things out of it, but much of it is dirty, with sticky powder and film it. anyone know how I can clean the film without damaging the grains appear be painted in acrylic? are so lovely and light, perfect for thick bracelets and earrings, but I'm afraid I'm going to destroy: (any advice?
