Maintenance And Service
CLEANING DECORATIVE SURFACES:
Painted and porcelain faces should be wiped with a damp cloth periodically. If a plated face has been purchased, it should be unpacked/unwrapped carefully to avoid getting anything on the surface of the finish, including cleaners, polish and finger prints. It is important to note that fingerprints and other marks can leave a permanent stain on plated finishes. To avoid this, give the face a quick wipe with denatured alcohol on a soft cloth BEFORE lighting the fireplace. Never clean the face when it is hot. Do not use other cleaners as they may leave a residue, which can become permanently etched into the surface.
If your fingers come into contact with the antique copper finish, the oils left as fingerprints on the copper can cause discoloration, which will eventually turn green in that area. You can clean the patina or discolored areas of the antique copper finish with “OO” 3M green sanding pads. These can be purchased from most hardware stores. On the areas with discoloration, use the sanding pads to sand in the same direction as the brushed finish, then blend the finish by feathering in the surrounding area. This refinishing procedure has been approved by the manufacturer and will not harm the finish. Please note: ANTIQUE COPPER IS THE ONLY FINISH THAT CAN BE SANDED, DO NOT SAND PEWTER, GOLD OR NICKEL FINISHES.
