Maintenance
Finish
The Obut MATCH IT strie 0 pétanque boule has a natural stainless steel satin finish when supplied to the consumer.
Maintenance
Depending on whether it is used intensively or not, the nature of the courts played on, the ambient humidity, etc ...., the Obut MATCH IT strie 0 competition boule may require maintenance after each game of pétanque and at least once a month if it is not used.
We recommend the Obut maintenance product.
A little Obut advice: don't leave your boules sets in the boot of your car, as this is exposed to sudden changes in temperature which lead to condensation.
These high humidity conditions will, in the long run, be detrimental to your boules by encouraging oxidation.
So remember to take your balls out of the boot of your car and store them indoors, in a dry place.
