Caring for Engraved Boulders
Once you have your custom engraved boulder, it’s important to know how to care for it.
The first step is to find the perfect spot for it. Consider the sun, wind, and rain exposure when choosing a location. It’s also crucial to think about the weight of the rock. Make sure that the ground is firm enough to support it.
When you have the perfect spot for your boulder, consider the best way to secure it. If you want to place it on soft ground, you may need to dig a hole and use concrete. Protect your boulder or rock from the elements when it’s in place. Spray with a sealant to keep it from fading in the sun or getting damaged by the rain.
