FAQs

What are the dimensions of the Splosh Travel Map?

The Splosh Travel Map measures 77cm x 54cm.

How many pins are included with the map?

The map comes with 100 metallic pins.

Can I use staples or other fasteners instead of pins?

It is recommended to use only pins or tacks. Staples may cause excessive damage to the cork and frame.

Is the map waterproof?

The map itself is not waterproof. Care should be taken to keep it away from excessive moisture, especially the cork backing.

Can I hang this map in a humid environment like a bathroom?

It is not recommended to hang the map in a very humid environment, as prolonged exposure to moisture can damage the cork and wood.

Does the map come with mounting hardware?

No, the map does not include wall mounting hardware. You will need to provide your own suitable for your wall type.

How do I clean the surface of the map?

Use a soft, dry cloth. If necessary, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but ensure it is dried immediately.

Troubleshooting

Pins do not hold securely in the cork.

Ensure pins are inserted straight and fully into the cork. If the cork is compacted, try a slightly different insertion point. For very deep pins, ensure they are not going through the cork entirely.

Map appears crooked or uneven on the wall.

Adjust the hanging hardware. Use a spirit level to ensure the frame is positioned correctly before fully securing it.

Frame has minor dust or smudges.

Gently wipe the black wooden frame with a soft, dry cloth. For tougher smudges, use a cloth that is very slightly dampened with water, then dry immediately.

Cork backing appears damaged or has holes.

Minor pinholes are normal for cork. If there are significant tears, try to minimize their visibility by placing photos or pins over the damaged area. Avoid over-inserting or forcing pins.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a visually engaging way to track and plan travels.
  • Dual functionality as a decorative item and a practical planning tool.
  • Includes ample pins for detailed mapping of journeys.
  • Durable construction with a wooden frame and cork backing.
  • Suitable for all ages as both a learning aid and a personal keepsake.

Cons

  • Cork backing can be damaged by excessive force or moisture.
  • Requires separate mounting hardware which is not included.
  • Detailed accuracy of very small cities might be limited on a world map scale.
  • The black frame might show dust more readily than lighter options.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The map is ready to hang. Ensure you have appropriate wall mounting hardware (not included) suitable for its size and weight. Securely attach the map to the wall, ensuring it is level.

Compatibility: This map is designed for use with standard push pins, metallic pins, or small thumbtacks. It is compatible with most common map-marking accessories.

Care: To clean the map's surface and frame, use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture, especially on the cork backing, to prevent damage or discoloration. Periodically check pins to ensure they are firmly in place. For the cork, avoid pressing pins with excessive force to maintain its surface integrity.
