Quick answer
Store your Elixir Liquid Core dice in a padded case away from heat and direct sun, clean them with a soft damp cloth and mild soap only, and handle them gently to keep the liquid core swirling and the sharp edges intact.
Why liquid core dice need different care
Elixir dice contain a glittery liquid core sealed inside a resin shell. The molding process creates a small bubble that moves freely; this is normal and does not affect rolling. However, heat, prolonged sunlight, and harsh chemicals can degrade the resin or cause the core to become cloudy, so routine care should focus on temperature control and gentle cleaning.
Sharp edges are another vulnerable point. Chips or cracks can compromise the seal, leading to leaks or loss of the swirling effect. Handle these dice as you would any precision-made resin accessory—with care and a dedicated storage spot.
Storage mistakes to avoid
Many dice owners store sets loose in a bag with metal dice or keys. For liquid core dice, that invites scratches and impacts that can crack the shell. Also, leaving them on a sunny windowsill or near a heater can thin the liquid or warp the resin over time.
A dedicated dice case with soft dividers or individual pouches prevents contact damage. Keep the case in a cool, dry place—not in a car or near a radiator. If you display your dice, choose a shaded spot away from direct sunlight.
Step-by-step care routine
- Clean after each session: Wipe each die with a soft, damp microfiber cloth. For stubborn residue, use a drop of mild dish soap on the cloth—never soak the dice or use alcohol-based cleaners. Common mistake: submerging dice in water, which can seep into micro-cracks and damage the core. Check the cloth is only damp, not wet, before touching the die.
- Dry immediately and completely: After wiping, dry each die with a dry section of the microfiber cloth. Let them air-dry for a few minutes before storing. Checkpoint: run a finger over the surface—if you feel moisture, wait longer. Never store dice while damp; trapped moisture can cloud the resin.
- Store in a padded, divided case: Place each die in its own compartment or soft pouch. Avoid cases with hard plastic ridges that press against the edges. Common mistake: tossing dice into a shared bag with metal dice or sharp-edged accessories. Shake the closed case gently—if you hear rattling, add more padding.
- Keep away from heat and sunlight: Store the case in a drawer or cabinet at room temperature. Do not leave it in a car, near a stove, or on a sunny desk. Checkpoint: touch the case after storage—if it feels warm, move it to a cooler spot. Heat can thin the liquid core and warp resin; cool and dark is best.
- Handle with clean hands over a soft surface: Roll on a padded dice tray or mat, not directly on hard tables. Avoid dropping dice from height. Common mistake: rolling on concrete or tile, which can chip edges. A dedicated dice tray cushions impacts and keeps dice from bouncing away.
