You should not place your ARK crystal directly into the material you wish to activate.
Don't worry if you get caught in the rain wearing your ARK Crystal, treat it as you would when cleaning - air dry, and touch up with a cloth.
ARK Crystal is NOT responsible for damage as a result of immersion.
Avoid submerging/soaking in any medium, as it may leave residue and expose the magnets inside of the saddle to the risk of rust.
