The metal finishes shown here include:Powder coat on steel or aluminum for maximum durability in harsh environments.Hand applied patinas on steel, stainless steel, copper, or brass for unequalled artistic beauty suitable for indoor or outdoor use (see note on patina finishes below).Hand finished aluminum and stainless steel for beauty and durability.
Note: Patina Finishes, while protected from ultraviolet light of the sun, will continue to age slowly and will darken somewhat over time.To slow the aging proces further, when fixtures with patina finishes are installed in the weather, it is recommended that a refresher coat of clear,water based polyurethane with UV protectors is periodically applied. Every two years or so is sufficient to maintain the fixture's hand applied patina finish.
