Product Overview
Silvertone and Brasstone Items:
These finishes are made possible by using an anodizing process that enables us to have a gleaming finish put into the metal itself. These rich anodized finishes require virtually no care. They will never tarnish, therefore require no polishing.
These pieces can be washed in mild warm soapy water, but MUST NOT be washed using a strong detergent. Dry immediately. Waxes, such as GÇÿPledgeGÇÖ may be used to aid in the protection of the finish. Do NOT use an abrasive cleaner or metal polish. Do NOT put in a dishwasher.
Unmatched in its durability, Artistic offers a five year guarantee on our Silvertone and Brasstone Communionware. (See back panel.)
Polished Aluminum Items:
These pieces are light weight and polished to a rich finish. They may be washed in warm soapy water using a mild detergent. Dry immediately with a soft cloth. These pieces will require occasional polishing to restore the original luster. Do NOT put in a dishwasher.
Silvertone has a slightly brighter, lighter finish than the Polished Aluminum. The Polished Aluminum has a glossier, clearer, deeper look than the Silvertone when it is kept polished, closer to chrome in appearance. The Silvertone, however will never need to be polished and will keep it's bright look virtually indefinitely.
