Antique copper deposits a patina that is darker than normal copper plate and resembles old copper or antique bronze. This is ideal for adding the finishing touches to antique furniture a interior fittings. We recommend that once plated, the surface is lightly polished. After a few weeks the surface ages further to impart a beautiful aged copper look.
It also serves as an undercoat when plating pewter, britannia metal, lead and its alloys.
