FINISH INFORMATION
Painted Finish
High Quality exterior enamel.
(ML) Manilla Tan - Between an off white and a light tan.
Designed to accommodate the majority of U.S. home color combinations.
Polished Antique Patina (PAP) Finish
This is a unique, proprietary finish first offered in the late 1980's and discovered by
accident using a blend of chemical and hand worked processes on brass.
The PAP Finish is NOT uniform nor is it intended to be. Each box is hand finished
and will vary from one to the next depending on many factors including, temperature,
humidity, and variations in metal composition.
When new, the finish will have varying degrees of red and brown, with even some pink
and yellow possible. As it ages, all of those colors will darken and dull, becoming more
uniform with time. This is a naural brass finish, uncoated, and is designed to darken and
dull with age.
The amount of patina IF ANY (blue/green highlights), will not increase over time even if
exposed to the ocean. Some styles including most wall mount mailboxes do not show
any patina.
NOTE:
We do not accept returns on the basis of finish variation.
The interior of our mailboxes are wiped clean, but unfinished (raw yellow brass) and may
have some residual streaks as a result of the finishing process.
