Praying soldier with boots, helmet, and rifle is a free-standing beautiful lawn or landscape art piece. Makes an excellent memorial as well.

The beautiful piece is cut from 0.13 inch thick steel and bent at the base. Three stakes go through the base to hold it to the ground. This memorial stake is roughly 23.5 inches tall and just over 28 inches wide with a flat base.

Choose from our selection of colors, the classic naturally rusted finish, or raw steel for a DIY finish. Color finishes are powder coated for a durable, long-lasting finish indoors or out.

Please note that the naturally rusted finish is made of real, rusted steel. Signs have been pre-soaked to begin the rusting process. The patina will only improve with age! Irregular colors are to be expected, and with time outdoors the entire item will turn a golden rusty brown. Rusted steel can stain fabrics and leave residue on your hands. Please be aware that the item may have sharp edges. Gardening gloves are recommended. This finish is not intended as an indoor product.

This do-it-yourself raw steel sign is coated with an oily film to prevent rust during transit. While we use brand new steel and use rust preventative measures on the mild steel, your raw steel sign can develop slight surface rusting during shipment to your location. This is most likely during transits in high humidity and/or the package being delivered in the rain. Any light surface rust is easily removed by lightly sanding or scuffing with a green scrubbing pad before painting or display.

We recommend lacquer based paint thinner, acetone, automotive brake cleaner or solvent based wax & grease remover to clean the oily film off of the sign before painting. Sanding with a 220 grit or finer sand paper or using a green scrubbing pad to scuff the surface of the metal will greatly enhance paint adhesion. Spray paint with primer is an easy coating for this type of sign. We do not recommend water-based paint on raw steel products as it can cause rust instead of preventing it. Always paint the back side first, so that the front will not be placed down after painting.

We hope you'll love our metal art pieces as much as we loved creating them!
