What To Expect When Taking Care Bronze Plaques

The bronze headstone has become an increasingly popular choice at cemeteries because of the durability it offers and beautiful designs. It is often located on a marble or granite base and although an expensive creation, it provides aesthetic solutions and longevity. Bronze Plaques require specific techniques to ensure that it remains well maintained and delivers maximum weather resistance.

The metal consists of a number of layers including a solid protective coat that can prevent against significant deterioration when exposed to the external climate. Over time, the coating may wear down and requires regular maintenance to minimize the possibility of exposing the raw metal. Cemeteries often include maintenance services that should be determined or steps for care need to be put in place.

A mixture including a watery base can be developed in order to clean the plaque. The purpose is to remove excess debris and to develop a solution consisting of ivory soap and water. A hard scrubbing brush can be used to clear the plaque of all dirt, sand, and waste that may have accumulated.

The scrubbed surface can be cleaned with water and excess particles eliminated. A solution of distilled water is needed to eliminate chemicals and prevent against the possible of a reaction. A soft cloth should be applied to the area to aid in the removal of moisture and to eliminate the soap from the surface areas.

If you wish to achieve that beautiful shine, a cloth can be used for buffering. This step should only be performed one the area is completely dry and may be enhanced with a quality wax developed for use with metals. This will not only deliver the breathtaking shine, but also protect the surface from further damage.

A bronze plaque is certainly one of the most beautiful designs as a memorial. If any deterioration is detected, it should be addressed with wax and a thorough polish to prevent further deterioration and unattractive results. With the right type of care, it is possible to maintain the appeal and form of these stones.
