Yes, you can clean McCoyToys!

Ordinarily wood and water do not mix well.....

However, McCoyToys that are painted can be cleaned with a damp soft cloth.  Just simply wipe it gently to remove "debris" left by sticky fingers etc....

Sometime at a craft fair or bazaar; it is not unusual (especially this time of year) to have a layer of dust accumulate on items that were on display.  When we return home everything is unpacked, examined for any "trauma", cleaned and/or dusted using a large dry paint brush or a damp cloth as described above.

Items that are "not painted" are either stained or have an application of Mineral Oil - these we dust with the paint brush or wipe with a dry soft cloth. Do not put water on an item that is not painted!

One of our most popular items this time of year is the Ring Toss Game - "X'" style - available with either red or blue base.  The center peg is always yellow - the other 4 pegs are the opposite color of the base (red pegs with blue base; blue pegs with red base).

Uniquely the game comes apart for easy storage in the handy tote (locally made) that is included with the purchase.
