Q: How do I care for my Mariposa products?
A: Handwash metal in warm water with mild soap and towel dry immediately. Do not place in the dishwasher or microwave. Our glassware is dishwasher safe. For more detailed care instructions visit our Product Care page.
Q: I accidentally washed my metal serving piece in the dishwasher, can it be restored to its original finish?
A: Like most metal, Mariposa’s 100% recycled aluminum pieces must be washed by hand and towel dried. Washing a piece in the dishwasher will permanently damage the finish. Some luster may be restored by using a non-abrasive metal polish, such as Simi-chrome, but should not be counted on to restore the piece to its original finish.
Q: Can I remove scratches from my metal serving piece?
A: We recommend maintaining the finish of Mariposa 100% recycled aluminum serving pieces, which includes removal of light scratches, with a non-abrasive metal polish such as Simi-chrome. However, if the scratches are deep they may not respond completely to polishing and buffing.

A: We work tirelessly to ensure that each item we sell is of the highest quality workmanship and arrives to you free of damage and defects. However, things do happen during shipment and if an item arrives damaged or broken please contact us at customerservice@mariposa.com and we will replace the item free of charge.
