Painting Tips
The entire process usually takes about an 1 - 1.5 hours, depending on design, the rock gets sun in the afternoon so it dries quickly. You will need 2-4 cans of spray paint to completely cover the entire rock (Advice: Do buy satin or flat finish spray paint. Do NOT waste your time on or money with the $0.99 cans, they don't work). Paint your background with the spray paint.

Get small bottles of acrylic paint (usually less than $1 each) and paint your message and designs on with paint brushes. You may need to bring a container of water to rinse your brushes between colors (please pour this out in the wooded area - not on the grass under the rock).

The rocks is 7 feet tall by 6 feet wide on the face. You may want a step stool.

DO NOT PAINT OR SPRAY PAINT ON THE SIDES OR BACK OF THE ROCK!

There is not an area to wash off your brushes, so bring plastic bags to pack out dirty brushes and a bucket of water if you need to rinse brushes while painting. The gate at the road closes by 6:00PM, so make sure you park on the road if you will still be painting after that time.

Please adhere to the following guidelines

*You must wait until 3:00PM on the day before your rental to begin painting.

*No political, religious, or other taboo messages - Principal Haney reserves the right to remove any slogan or message that is not consistent with the intent of the rock and refunds will not be given.

*Keep area around the rock clean and free of paint and trash. Drops clothes are recommended.
