To facilitate the most efficient response, please include details of your requirements- type of application, square footage, etc., along with your zip code.

What is the least number of sheets I can purchase?

The Liberty Collection is generally available in single sheets, but minimum quantities and other terms may vary by distributor.

Why do you texture metal?

The main reason is aesthetic. Copper and brass are well-known for their natural beauty, and textures such as these can only enhance that beauty. With so many pattern choices, the Revere Liberty Collection adds a unique element to any project.

What are the advantages of textured copper vs. bare copper?

Textured copper adds style to copper accents, and creates unique reflectivity. It also minimizes physical damage, including scratches and dents.

Will the copper stay bright and shiny?

No, as with all copper, textured copper will dull and lose its luster over time. If your particular project demands a lasting shine, you may wish to consider one of several protective coatings on the market. Contact your distributor or Revere for details.

Will the copper change color?

Yes. Over time, copper reacts with the atmosphere, resulting in what can be dramatic color changes, depending on the environmental conditions. Again, coating the surface can minimize such changes. It should be noted that this natural weathering is the same for all copper- the texturing process associated with the Revere Liberty Collection has no effect one way or the other.

Does any Revere Liberty Collection pattern come with a coating on it?

No. The entire collection is made from bare copper that has been texturized, but coatings may be applied to preserve its natural beauty. Contact your distributor or Revere for details.

Can I cut, score, bend or solder it?

Yes. Textured copper maintains all the same physical properties as regular copper. Its malleable nature makes it easy to work with, using metal snips and other standard sheet metal tools.

How many different textures are available?

The Revere Liberty Collection comes in several different textures, in both copper and brass. To view the complete selection of available patterns, please visit our samples page.
