Care of your boules
- Depending on how intensively it is used, the kind of terrain, ambient humidity, etc., the Obut Match IT 0-grade striated competition boule may therefore require a little care and attention after each game and at least once a month if it is not used.
- We recommend using the Obut boule care product.
A tip from Obut : don't leave your set of boules in your car boot, as this can be subject to sudden changes in temperature, leading to condensation.
Such significantly damp conditions will be harmful to your boules in the long run, as they can cause oxidation.
So remember to take your boules out of the boot and store them in a dry place indoors.
