Hi all,
I have a client that is very keen on using copper for store installations. Its a beautiful, but expensive aesthetic. However, they also want to implement copper into exterior applications. Because copper will not hold up to weathering, we’re exploring alternatives.
Does anyone have any recommendations to produce a copper aesthetic that won’t deteriorate in the weather? Any quality paint brands? Powder coats? Electroplating aluminum? Laminates or other coatings?
Matthews Paint has a copper paint that we’re going to mess around with and probably spray some aluminum samples.
Hi John-
Here’s a project we did that’s exterior and the material was supposed to be copper. We ended up doing a brushed finish on aluminum and doing a tinted clearcoat using Matthews Paint.
If you need any specific details, please don’t hesitate to ask!
