For further information about recording Rock Art see the ERA website at http://archaeologydataservice/era and always follow the Rock Art Code and never remove turf from buried rock art panels as any newly exposed surfaces will be especially vulnerable to erosion; never remove lichen as you may remove part of the rock surface and the tiny root fissures left behind will fill with water and be susceptible to freeze-thaw erosion, weakening the surface matrix; never use any substances (including water) to "clean" surfaces or use any stiff brushes or metal tools; never add chalk or other substances to "enhance" the carvings, or undertake any recording technique that involved direct and/or repeated contact with the surface e.g. wax rubbing.
