How is the bronzing process done? Are the shoes sprayed or dipped or something?
Bronzing is done with real copper which cannot be “sprayed” on. Your keepsakes are prepared for the electroplating process by first being treated with a stiffening agent, allowed to dry, treated again with a conductive agent, then placed in the electroplating tanks. All the while strict quality controls ensure the finest possible finished product. After final polishing the bronzed item is then sprayed with a clear lacquer coating to protect against tarnishing. You should never polish bronzed keepsakes because that would wear through the protective lacquer coating. Simple light dusting from time to time is all the care your heirloom will ever need.
