How to maintain the birdcage?

Maintenance of birdcage \ x0d \ x0d \ (1) Bamboo has "pores" to absorb a small amount of moisture in the air. Bird cages should not be exposed to the sun, because they are afraid of drying their own water, becoming brittle and easy to break. Maintaining birdcages is like rubbing grease on people's skin. Injecting it under the skin of bamboo can make it absorb oil and keep it soft outside and rigid inside. \x0d\\x0d\ (2) There are many materials used to maintain birdcages. Sewing machine oil, Johnson & Johnson baby oil, walnut oil, skin moisturizing oil, silicone oil and so on are all the same. I'm talking about the maintenance of Chili oil. Chili oil has the advantages of economy, strong permeability and local materials. After maintenance, insects will not eat and mold will not grow. Because it is a natural pigment, after repeated maintenance, the birdcage will be colored quickly and beautiful, which not only prolongs the service life, but also makes the birdcage antique and beneficial to collection. Pepper oil contains capsaicin, whose chemical name is "trans -8- methyl -N- vanillyl -6- nonenamide", and pepper activates VR 1. This thing is amazing. "High concentration of capsaicin can inhibit the synthesis of cells and squamous epithelial cells." \ x0d \ x0d \ Prepare tools, rub fine sandpaper with rubber, clean the cloth and brush a small line of Chili oil \ x0d \ x0d \ operation steps \ x0d \ a. Clean the whole cage. Choosing a new cage is not busy raising birds, which is a truth recognized by cage owners. First remove the dung board and pedal, carefully observe whether there is dust, stains and bamboo thorns inside and outside the cage, and slowly wipe off the dust and stains with an eraser. If there are bamboo thorns, gently wipe them off with fine sandpaper dipped in a little water. Don't use too much force and polish too much to cause injury. Never pick a bamboo thorn with a knife. There is no weight with a knife, especially when bamboo sticks and bamboo wires are scratched. This is too meticulous work, and it is useless to be calm and patient. \ x0d \ B. Dry the water. Clean the whole cage with a clean dry cloth that won't drop thread and yarn, and put it in the shade in combination with the local air humidity until the cage is completely dry. Of course, at this time, the bird cage can no longer be contaminated with dust. C. internal and external oil. Brush the prepared Chili oil out of the cage with a small row of brushes. The "meat" part of the bamboo in the cage absorbs oil most easily. Brush the big circle of the cage several times and be sure to be "full". After finishing the interior decoration, brush the exterior decoration, and finally the dung board and pedal. It is worth noting that the scales (gourds) under the hooks and the "small round plates" on the top cage shaft are made of ebony or boxwood, which is not easy to absorb oil and needs to be brushed several times, thus completing the first oiling of the birdcage. Then put the birdcage in the shade, so that the birdcage can fully absorb the grease. In a few days, repeat the oiling like the first time until the cage absorbs enough grease and the oiling work is completed. After a period of time, the water evaporates and the texture becomes hard. \ x0d \ D. Dry in the shade for later use. After refueling, wipe the inside and outside with a clean dry cloth. At this time, you will feel that the birdcage is not so fragile, and it seems to have vitality and is tougher than before. The color of Chili oil is relatively fast, and the color has also achieved initial results. From white to light yellow, the smoothness of the cage has also come out. At this time, the bird cage can't be exposed to the sun, but can only be dried in the shade with the help of the breeze in weak sunlight. \x0d\ A.B.C.D is only the first maintenance, and it is oiled several times a year in my spare time. Please note that before maintenance, it must be scrubbed with clean water, dried and oiled. The longer the time, the more obvious the effect. Bird cages will be unique and durable, and will be safe in rainy season. This is the role of Chili oil. The maintenance of Chili oil makes the subcutaneous tissue of birdcage change physically, and the color of birdcage develops from light white-light yellow-dark yellow-red-light red-dark red-bronze. \x0d\ Note: The joint of the big ring of the new birdcage should be sealed with adhesive tape. If it is not sealed and oiled, black lines will appear. Some cages don't pay attention to this The black line is very obvious. Just look at the old cage. When oiling the cage, you should dry the oil on the cage body with a clean cloth. By the way, open the adhesive tape of the joint and gently rub it along the direction of the joint with a clean cloth that has just been oiled, so that there will be no black line in the cage and the joint will be colored. You can't bask in the sun in summer Clean the cage with clean water once a month to keep it moist and keep the water it should absorb. This is the key to keeping the cage.
