Bronze to Oil Rubbed Bronze

December 18, 2008

I have a door with a solid Bronze sill. It doesn't match and I want it to be Oil Rubbed Bronze. Is there a way to chemically bring this about?

Hi, Garry. Oil rubbed bronze is actually a finish that is done on copper rather than bronze, but I suppose you could have the finish applied to the sill. If you patiently search the site you will see numerous letters that describe oil rubbed bronze, but a good starting point is letter 34482.
