You can use Metal Protective Coat, a clear, protective coating that will keep your copper looking like new and protect it from weathering.

1. If you want to protect your metal garden art while it's still new，

simply remove any oil or other contaminants from the copper or brass. This can be done by wiping the metal with xylene or denatured alcohol, which can be purchased at most hardware or paint stores. This will ensure the surface is completely clean, allowing Everbrite™ to apply evenly and with good adhesion. Wiping with solvent will not remove stains. If you want your metal to tarnish slightly and want to retain the tarnish without making it worse, then you can stop the progression of tarnish by using an Everbrite™ coating.

2. After the metal is clean, Everbrite™ or ProtectaClear® can be applied in a variety of ways.

It can be sprayed or wiped onto the surface using a clear coat applicator, natural bristle paintbrush, poly sponge brush, or lint-free cloth pad. Let it dry and enjoy your beautiful copper and brass garden art, weathervanes, cupolas, steeples, copper gutters, wind chimes and more.

For exterior applications that do not require extensive handling, Everbrite™ is recommended. ProtectaClear® is recommended for indoor metal or metal that requires frequent handling, such as railings, door handles, door knockers, etc.
