6. Product Labels and Manufacturer Instructions

The product label, packaging, safety warning, and manufacturer instructions supplied with a product should be reviewed before use.

When website information differs from a current product label or manufacturer safety instruction, stop using the product and contact us or the manufacturer for clarification.

Some art materials may contain substances capable of causing:

  • Skin or eye irritation
  • Allergic reactions
  • Respiratory irritation
  • Harmful fumes
  • Staining
  • Fire or combustion risks
  • Toxic effects if swallowed or improperly used
  • Other acute or chronic health risks

Products should be used only for their intended purposes and according to all applicable instructions and warnings.

Depending on the product, safe use may require:

  • Adequate ventilation
  • Gloves
  • Eye protection
  • Protective clothing
  • Respiratory protection appropriate for the product
  • Safe storage
  • Adult supervision
  • Separation from food and beverages
  • Avoidance of heat, flames, sparks, or ignition sources
  • Proper waste disposal
  • Washing hands after use

Never assume that a product is harmless merely because it is described as an art, craft, school, hobby, natural, water-based, odorless, washable, or non-toxic product.

Follow the actual product labeling and manufacturer instructions.

8. “Non-Toxic,” “Safe,” and Similar Descriptions

Descriptions such as “non-toxic,” “safe,” “child-friendly,” “washable,” “eco-friendly,” or similar terms must be interpreted in the context of the product label, intended use, age recommendation, and supporting manufacturer information.

“Non-toxic” does not mean that a product:

  • Is edible
  • Can be safely swallowed
  • Is harmless in all quantities
  • Is suitable for every age
  • Cannot cause allergies or irritation
  • Can be used without ventilation
  • Can be mixed with any other material
  • Can be disposed of in any manner
  • Is safe for food-contact use
  • Is safe for cosmetic or body application

Do not use an art product on skin, hair, nails, food, cookware, toys, drinking containers, or other unintended surfaces unless the product is specifically labeled for that use.

9. Children’s Art Products

Not all products sold by Sketchora are designed or intended for children.

Parents, guardians, teachers, and other supervising adults are responsible for:

  • Reviewing age recommendations
  • Reading product warnings
  • Confirming that the product is appropriate for the child
  • Providing adequate supervision
  • Storing products securely
  • Preventing ingestion or misuse
  • Keeping small parts and sharp items away from younger children
  • Ensuring proper cleanup and disposal

Products containing blades, sharp points, small components, resins, solvents, aerosols, hot tools, electrical elements, strong adhesives, or hazardous chemicals may be unsuitable for children or may require direct adult supervision.

A product’s appearance, color, packaging, or use in a craft activity does not necessarily mean that it is a children’s product.

10. Allergies and Sensitivities

Art supplies may contain substances capable of causing allergic reactions or sensitivity.

Potential sources may include:

  • Latex
  • Natural rubber
  • Preservatives
  • Fragrances
  • Pigments
  • Dyes
  • Metals
  • Adhesives
  • Solvents
  • Resins
  • Plant-derived materials
  • Animal-derived materials
  • Wood dust
  • Powdered substances

Customers with known allergies, asthma, chemical sensitivities, skin conditions, or other relevant health concerns should review available ingredient and safety information before use.

Consider conducting an appropriate test where recommended by the manufacturer.

Stop using the product if irritation, breathing difficulty, swelling, rash, or another adverse reaction occurs, and seek appropriate medical assistance when necessary.

Sketchora does not provide medical or toxicological advice.

11. Ventilation and Protective Equipment

Certain products should not be used in enclosed, poorly ventilated, or residential spaces without appropriate precautions.

Customers are responsible for evaluating the workspace and following the product’s requirements for:

  • Ventilation
  • Air extraction
  • Respiratory protection
  • Gloves
  • Eye protection
  • Protective surfaces
  • Fire prevention
  • Spill control
  • Safe storage

An ordinary dust mask may not provide suitable protection from vapors, fumes, solvents, or fine particles.

Consult the product instructions, safety documentation, manufacturer, or an appropriately qualified professional when you are uncertain about the necessary protective equipment.

12. Flammable, Aerosol, Chemical, and Reactive Products

Some products may contain flammable, combustible, pressurized, corrosive, reactive, or chemically sensitive materials.

Such products must be kept away from:

  • Open flames
  • Sparks
  • Heat sources
  • Direct sunlight
  • Smoking materials
  • Children
  • Animals
  • Incompatible substances

Do not heat, puncture, burn, crush, mix, decant, or transfer a product contrary to its instructions.

Shipping, storage, return, and disposal restrictions may apply.

Do not return a hazardous, flammable, aerosol, solvent-based, or restricted product without receiving written instructions from Sketchora.

13. Food, Cosmetic, and Body-Contact Use

Products sold as general art or craft supplies are not intended for food, cosmetic, tattooing, face painting, body painting, nail, dental, or medical use unless the product is expressly labeled and lawfully marketed for that specific purpose.

Do not use general art supplies:

  • On food
  • In food preparation
  • On cookware or eating surfaces
  • On skin
  • Near eyes or mucous membranes
  • For tattooing
  • As cosmetics
  • On teeth
  • In medical applications

A label such as “water-based,” “washable,” or “non-toxic” does not automatically make a product suitable for these uses.

14. Surface and Material Compatibility

Paints, inks, adhesives, varnishes, cleaners, solvents, cutting tools, and other art products may damage or permanently alter surfaces.

Before applying a product, customers should:

  • Review the intended surfaces
  • Follow preparation instructions
  • Test the product on an inconspicuous area
  • Check drying and curing times
  • Confirm temperature and humidity requirements
  • Protect surrounding property
  • Confirm compatibility between materials

Sketchora is not responsible for damage caused solely by applying a product to an unsuitable surface, mixing incompatible materials, ignoring instructions, or failing to conduct a recommended test, except where responsibility cannot lawfully be excluded.

15. Natural and Handmade Materials

Products made with wood, leather, stone, clay, paper, natural fibers, plant materials, or handmade components may display natural variation.

Variations may include:

  • Grain
  • Texture
  • Shade
  • Shape
  • Pattern
  • Thickness
  • Surface markings
  • Minor dimensional differences

Such natural variations are not automatically defects.

A product will nevertheless be evaluated under our Return & Refund Policy when it is damaged, materially misdescribed, or significantly different from the product ordered.

16. Tools, Blades, Needles, and Sharp Products

Certain art and craft products may include:

  • Craft knives
  • Replacement blades
  • Cutting wheels
  • Needles
  • Awls
  • Carving tools
  • Sculpting tools

These items can cause serious injury if mishandled.

Customers must:

  • Use the appropriate cutting surface
  • Cut away from the body
  • Use protective equipment when appropriate
  • Keep tools securely stored
  • Replace damaged tools
  • Prevent access by children
  • Follow all manufacturer instructions

Age or shipping restrictions may apply.

We may refuse or cancel a transaction when sale or shipment would violate an applicable requirement.

17. Heated and Electrical Tools

Some products may include heating elements, motors, lamps, powered cutters, glue guns, or other electrical components.

Before use:

  • Confirm voltage and plug compatibility
  • Inspect the cord and product
  • Keep the tool away from water
  • Use a suitable power source
  • Avoid unattended operation
  • Allow heated products to cool safely
  • Follow all electrical and fire-safety instructions

Adapters do not necessarily convert voltage.

Using a product with an incompatible voltage, power source, plug, or electrical system may cause product damage, fire, shock, or injury.

  • Archival preservation advice

  • Engineering advice

  • Manufacturer testing
  • Testing standards

  • Surface preparation
  • Exposure to light
  • Temperature

remain the property or responsibility of their respective owners, as applicable.

Third-party services may be governed by their own terms and privacy policies.
