Our rings are extremely durable and long lasting. Each ring is hand finished with walnut oil and sealed in natural beeswax. Just like any skateboard, for best results rings should avoid getting wet. Colors are likely to fade after time but can be rejuvenated by applying some simple hand sanding with 320 sand paper or higher, butcher block finish, beeswax, lip balm, or can be sent back to us for a free fresh coating.
