Care of Finishes
PRODUCTS FITTED INTERNALLY
Regular cleaning with warm soapy water should be sufficient to keep any finish in its original condition for a long period. The occasional use of a good quality wax polish is also recommended.
PLATED FINISHES
Will also benefit from the occasional use of chrome cleaner, followed by a wipe with a cloth impregnated withย light oil.
RMBA & RUSTIC BRONZE
Will benefit from the occasional wipe with a cloth impregnated with light oil.
PRODUCTS FITTED EXTERNALLY
Environmental conditions can have a dramatic effect on the stability of surface finishes. Industrialย pollution, high humidity, sea air and acidic rain may well cause a finish to deteriorate prematurely. Regular cleaning with good quality wax polish is recommended.
UNLACQUERED BRASSES & BRONZES
To retain the original finish, regular polishing with a good quality metal polish is essential. However, if the intention is to allow the surface to age through oxidisation then no attention needs to be given.
