Question Posted By: Bill Monday, February 19 2007 15:27:07 Suggest Answer

I have three exterior antique brass light fixtures(not sure if they are actually brass or just a metal with that finish). I want to change the finish to a dark brown oil rubbed bronze finish. I read elsewhere that someone achieved this look combining the ebony and spanish copper rub n buff. My question is will this finish last outside? Will a coat of clear polyurethane adhere to the rub n buff? Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Bill

    Good mo
    ing, Bill. You can achieve the effect your looking for with those colors. To seal this you can use either AMACO All Purpose Sealer or Krylon Workable Fixative. Polyurethane or va
    ish will not work on this product.
