Learn How to Restore and Protect Copper
New Copper
Solvent-wipe to ensure a clean and dry surface. Apply the coating for long-lasting results.
Two coats are recommended for most surfaces.
Tarnished Copper
Remove the tarnish with a variety of methods - Gel, Polish or Sanding.
Then, solvent wipe and apply Everbrite, ProtectaClear or CrobialCoat to protect your copper for years.
Protect the Patina
You love the patina that your copper has. Stop staining from acids or foods and wearing the patina off. Lock-In the patina and keep the look you want with Everbrite Coatings.
Directions for New Copper
​
1. If you want to protect your copper while it is still new or if you want to "freeze" the color of the patina and not allow your copper to tarnish further, clean any oil or other contaminants from the metal. This can be done by simply wiping the metal with a solvent cleaner like 99% isopropyl or denatured alcohol. The solvents will not remove tarnish, patina or dark fingerprints. These will need to be polished off of the surface.
​
***TIP: Use gloves to handle new copper before it is sealed or you can end up with dark fingerprints on the copper.
​
2. Once the metal is clean, Everbrite, ProtectaClear, or CrobialCoat can be applied by several methods. It can be sprayed on or wiped on the surface with clear-coat applicators, fine brushes, poly-sponge brushes or a pad of lint-free white cloth. Let it dry and enjoy your beautiful copper weather vane, cupola, finial, copper gutters, copper rain chains, wind chimes and more!
