Q: How much maintenance do your sculptures require? A: Our sculptures are fabricated using only the finest materials, such as silicon bronze and stainless steel and they therefore require very little maintenance. Sculpture: For general cleaning we recommend using a diluted solution of Simple Green. From time to time, sculptures may require waxing. Water Sculpture: For general cleaning we recommend using a diluted solution of Simple Green. Smaller water sculptures should have their water changed every other month. This is easily accomplished using a wet/dry vacuum that you can buy at any major hardware store.
