Before and After
We recently had the exterior of our house painted and the painter recommended that I get rid of my light fixtures as they were all rusted, falling apart, missing pieces and splattered with old paint. I agreed and went on the hunt for new fixtures, only to find how incredibly expensive they were. So, I decided I would just paint them with a new metallic paint. When I started working on them, I found that there was no rust, just pure metal With a splash of vinegar and a lot of elbow grease, and a few replacement parts, I discovered that I was the owner of amazing handmade copper fixtures, with a retail value of over $2,000. To think I almost threw them out. The term "detailing" in the U.S. refers to the act or process of meticulously cleaning and refurbishing an automobile. I would like to think it can also be applied to light fixtures.
