The background of most bronze plaques is painted to provide a pleasing
contrast to the highlighted areas and may be
painted with standard or optional (extra cost) finishes pictured below.
Custom-matched (PMS) painted colors can also be provided. Additionally,
natural
chemical patinas and simulated painted patinas are available on bronze
plaques.

Patina Finishes (optional)
The patina finishes are created by applying chemicals and
heat to the bronze plaque surface. Once the desired color is achieved,
the raised
areas
are highlighted and a clear protective coating is applied to inhibit
further chemical reaction.

Hints
We
can match virtually any painted color from a sample provided or from
a numerical color matching system (for example, the Pantone Matching
System).
Colors
may vary slightly from batch to batch. In addition, background colors
will change over time due to exposure to light and the environment.
Chemical
patina finishes will vary from piece to piece, and uniform colors
over
large surface areas cannot be controlled. The color may vary from the
pictured swatches and the color will change over time on bronze
plaques installed
outdoors.
