3 D target care

[Southern Heritage]

Do y’all do anything with your 3d targets for general care. I have pretty nice 3d range and want them to last weather wise. So,e have replaceable inserts some don’t . Most of them are 2-3 years and still look great but some are fading. Just curious if I need to do anything extra.
They range from a small targets like a beaver to a glendell buck and every thing in between. I thought about covering them but my wife doesn’t love the idea which I understand. They already take up a lot of visual space and thankfull she doesn’t complain about that

I was thinking about a water sealant on them.
‘thanks

It's sun that kills them. Grill covers, or keep them well shaded thru the summer, put them up over the winter. That's the approach I take.

I know a place around here put Thompson waterseal on them, or something similar. Guys who shoot up there a lot told me they wouldn't recommend it, but it seemed to revolve around a greasy arrow over how the targets held up so I don't really know.
