Occasionally apply light machine oil to deepen the color and sheen of the untouched portions of the product. Coat the metal parts with oil and let it stand for a few minutes, then gently dab off (do not rub) , the excess with a clean cloth.
Never use abrasives, ammonia, or other harsh chemicals to clean your products. The purpose of the oil rubbed bronze finish is to patina overtime. Over time the oxidation will be worn away in those areas that are touched by the hand and reveal pleasing copper alloy tones. Areas that are not touched will remain the same in appearance as long as the finish is maintained. The general look of well maintained oil rubbed bronze is one of the most beautiful and practical hardware finishes available today.
For the majority of our finishes, we suggest using warm, soapy water and then towel-dry the hardware.
