Information
HOW TO USE:
- Just insert an unwrapped Boveda 49% RH into each pouch of this protective fabric holder.
- Place in the case anywhere that allows for airflow and prevents puncture when you close the case:
- Drape over the strings and into the sound hole
- Under the neck, headstock or tailpiece
- Across the strings or entire instrument
- Around tuning pegs
- Into a hollow of the case - Close the case's lid. Always keep your case closed when using Boveda.
Always insert Boveda into a pouch of a Boveda fabric holder before placing in an instrument case. The fabric holder allows Boveda to last longer and work better and acts as a liquid barrier if a packet is accidentally punctured.
Do not mix different Boveda RH levels within the same instrument case. And do not use Boveda in the same case with other humidification products because they will fight against each other and reduce the efficiency of Boveda.
