Finish

• When it is made available to the consumer, the Obut ATX pétanque boule has a golden satin finish.
• This finish corresponds naturally to the last operation of the production process.
• It is temporary, and it normally wears off after the first games.  

Maintenance

• Depending on whether or not it is used intensively, on the nature of the playing surfaces, and on the ambient moisture or humidity, etc., the ATX may need maintenance after every game, and at least once every month if it is not used.
• We recommend the Obut maintenance product.
