Feather dust or wipe with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners on
any of the finishes as it will cause surface scratches.
| BRASS
Use non-abrasives when removing any substance from the surface of
brass. Scratches in brass require a great deal of abrasive work
to remove and blend. Never use an object harder than the brass itself
to remove old lacquer, paint, wax, etc. Solid brass can be polished
by hand repeatedly for years without showing signs of wear.
Antique
Brass: Solid brass that has an antique appearance. This finish
matches most home décor well.
Polished
Brass: This is solid brass fixtures that are polished and buffed
to a high sheen. A coat of lacquer is then applied at the factory
to give the surface a coating that will restrict tarnishing. This
finish should be cleaned with a soft cloth only. Plumbers putty
should not be used on these fixtures as it will affect the finish.
Satin
Brass:
The
look of satin brass is achieved by hand sateening the finish after
polishing. As with unlacquered polished brass, this is a natural
finish protected by a wax coating. It can be regularly polished
to retain it's sheen or left to age gracefullly as the brass oxidizes. |
