While that may seem funny, if you got the card for its show value, then
it's to be taken seriously. Titanium is a soft metal, easily scratched.
The laser-etched logo and holoimaging processes are also easily damaged
by coming into contact with rough cloth. What Apple (or the actual
physical card issuer) should do is issue the card in a protective
sleeve, even one with a thin foil surrounding it to help protect it
against magnetic damage as described in the article. EZ-Pass
transponders come in these kinds of sleeve protectors.

Hello Everyone,
I can hardly catch my breath as I have just been reading the seemingly
endless jokes about the Apple Card and its unique cleaning instructions, on
Twitter, on the Apple Insider feed.
Man! I've never come across such a wonderful treasure trove of jokes in my
life.
I wonder if Apple is laughing, also. Probably not but, then again, they are
the ones who released the cards so, let the jokes fall where they may.
All of the jokes are based on the article, posted below:
Enjoy,

About the titanium Apple Card
The titanium Apple Card is laser-etched with the card holder's name and the
Apple logo. A white finish is achieved through a multi-layer coating process
that's added to the titanium base material.
If your titanium Apple Card comes into contact with hard surfaces or
materials, it's possible that the coating can be damaged.
How to clean your titanium Apple Card
If your titanium Apple Card comes into contact with contaminants that can
cause stains, follow these steps to clean your card:
1. Gently wipe with a soft, slightly damp, lint-free microfiber cloth.
2. Moisten a soft, microfiber cloth with isopropyl alcohol and gently
wipe the card.
Don't use window or household cleaners, compressed air, aerosol sprays,
solvents, ammonia, or abrasives to clean your titanium Apple Card.
Some fabrics, like leather and denim, might cause permanent discoloration
that will not wash off.
How to safely store and carry your titanium Apple Card
. Store your titanium Apple Card in a wallet, pocket, or bag made of
soft materials.
. Place your card in a slot in your wallet or billfold without
touching another credit card. If two credit cards are placed in the same
slot your card could become scratched.
. Don't place or store your titanium Apple Card card near magnets. If
your card is placed close to a magnetic latch on a purse or bag, the
magnetic strip can become demagnetized.
. Don't place your titanium Apple Card in a pocket or bag that
contains loose change, keys, or other potentially abrasive objects.
