Standard Finishes

WAXED We offer to apply a wax coating free of charge. If this finish is chosen, the wax seals the surface of the metal and prevents it reacting with the air and
developing a tarnish/patina. However if you not wish the patina to develop, the wax will need to be re-applied after installation and again in around 4-6 weeks time. As wax builds up on the surface it will then not need waxing as often (for normal usage).

UNWAXED If you chose to have your bath or basin un-waxed, then the bath surface will naturally develop a patina over a period of use/time. The copper will turn to a lovely deep rich brown colour. If you wish to maintain an untarnished finish this can be achieved using a metal polish. We would recommend Autosol metal polish as a suitable product to achieve this. With un-waxed nickel plated finishes, you must not leave damp towels/flannels on the nickel surface as they will permanently damage it.

Care Instructions

UNWAXED COPPER & NICKEL Clean with warm soapy water and a nonabrasive cloth. Dry immediately after use. Avoid dripping taps, sharp objects, the use of abrasive products and harsh chemicals. If the item has not been waxed, maintain the polished finish with the use of Autosol metal cleaner in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions as and when required.

WAXED COPPER & NICKEL Clean with warm soapy water and a nonabrasive cloth. Dry immediately after use. Avoid dripping taps, sharp objects, the use of abrasive products and harsh chemicals. To maintain the waxed finish reapply a suitable wax every 4-6 weeks following the manufacturer’s instructions.

PAINTED SURFACES Use a solution of soapy water and apply with a soft cloth or sponge in a brushing motion. Do not use wire brushes, steel wool & abrasive sponge pads. Rinse thoroughly with water immediately after the application of cleaners and wipe the surface leaving it completely dry after the process. Do not allow cleaners to sit or soak on the surface and avoid dripping taps. It is important not to use acidic cleaners or sprays as this will affect the surface of the bath and may result in small brown particles building up on the enamel surface or staining.
