Care & Safety

1. Unlacquered Polished or Satin Brass: Brass will naturally tarnish or age quickly after little exposure to its environment, creating a beautiful brown or gray-green color. Brass polishing compound (Braso) applied with a soft cloth will remove the patina and restore the brass to its original shine.

2. For All Other Living Finishes: An occasional application of a pure, nonabrasive wax (Johnson paste wax) is helpful in preventing spotting buildup, and light buffing with a soft cloth will produce a high luster. Do not allow materials such as toothpaste, nail polish remover or caustic cleaners to remain on the surface. Over time, with constant cleaning, the surface of your product may begin to show wear. The wear will take the form of faint lines in the highly polished surface.

3. Plated Finishes Care & Maintenance:To maintain the superior finish of these Plated products, please ensure that only a damp cloth is used with diluted, mild detergent to remove any stains or fingerprints. Residue build-up may cause discolouration of the original finish. To avoid such damage, please wipe products with a damp cloth, and dry thoroughly. It is recommended that this be done regularly, and incorporated into a general cleaning routine. Do not use harsh solvents, abrasive cleaners or scourers on any Plated products. This may affect the thickness of the plating. We recommend a light clean with diluted methylated spirits only for all Plated finishes. NB: Do not use methylated spirits on any Living Finishes as it may strip away any wax or protective coating.

4. Powder Coated Finishes Care & Maintenance: Powder-coated color finishes may chip with rough handling and therefore caution should be taken during installation, use and maintenance. To maintain the superior finish of these Powder Coated products, please ensure that only a damp cloth is used with diluted, mild detergent to remove any stains or fingerprints. Residue build-up may cause discolouration of the original finish. To avoid such damage, please wipe products with a damp cloth, and dry thoroughly. It is recommended that this be done regularly, and incorporated into a general cleaning routine. Do not use harsh solvents, abrasive cleaners or scourers on any Powder Coated products as this may affect the thickness of the coating over time. We recommend a light clean with use of an automotive polish to remove scratches by working in small sections gently.
