Frequently Asked Questions

Q) Which metals and finishes age the fastest and how do I care for the finish?

High Polish Bronze, Copper and Brass will begin aging the fastest. Limited maintenance is required to keep a shiny appearance by using a non-chalking metal polish, although most customers prefer to let the metal age naturally. All finishes in Nickel Silver, Stainless Steel and Aluminum will keep their original appearance by occasionally applying Gojo® sparingly on a soft brush and then buff dry with a towel. Oil Rubbed, Verdi, Rust and Wrought finishes will not age, but should be oiled occasionally to protect the finish. Tile installed in showers should be wiped dry with a soft cloth to prevent spotting. Use Gojo® sparingly to remove water spots and unwanted green patina. A product like Rain-X® can be used to protect tile installed above the water line in or around a pool. There is no maintenance required for tile installed below the water line.
