Guarding Artistry in Laguna Beach: A Statue Preservation Success Story

Bird Waste Corrosion: This refers to the damage caused by bird droppings on the surface of the statues. Bird waste contains acidic components that can gradually corrode and eat away at the materials comprising the statues, such as metal or stone. This corrosion process can result in unsightly stains, pitting, or even structural damage to the statues. The consequence of bird waste corrosion was a significant decline in the statues’ overall appearance. The accumulation of stains and the gradual erosion of the statue’s surface not only diminished their aesthetic appeal but also posed a threat to their long-term preservation. To address this issue, a solution was needed to protect the statues from further deterioration and restore their visual appeal.
