Bronze Statuary & Fountain Securing Guide

Your Bronze Statuary and Fountains may be anchored to the ground to prevent undesired movement or theft. Below are some common examples for mounting a bronze sculpture or fountain to its permanent location.

Bolting:
Although many sculpture designs are mounted on a base to provide stability, the base is not designed to prevent accidental tipping. We recommend bolting your piece to a secure base (e.g., a concrete patch, pad or prefabricated metal or wooden base) that can secure the sculpture base. Use a high-torque drill to create holes large enough to fit 3/8” or larger bolts, or use bolting mounting brackets on the base, which can then be secured. A color-matched patina can be used to match the bolts to the base color.

Cementing:
Set the sculpture base directly into a curing cement base and allow cement to dry, permanently securing the piece. Note that it will be difficult to move your sculpture from a cement base.

Welding
If other securing options prove untenable, brackets can be welded directly to the base. Use this method only if other options will not produce the desired result. Note that welding results in re-heating the metal sculpture, and it can peel off the finish for up to 12 inches surrounding the weld area, requiring the patina to be color matched and reapplied to the welded area.

Once the bronze sculpture is secured, decorative rocks, stones or landscaping can be added to hide any mounting brackets and water pump equipment.

Care & Cleaning of Bronze Statuary & Fountains

Through a variety of finishing processes, bronze statuary is
typically produced with French Brown and Verdigris patinas.

Natural Weathering
Bronze sculptures with a French Brown finish will naturally oxidize to a Verdi Green patina over several years if left outdoors. Bronze Sculptures with a Verdi Green finish will oxidize to a deep green patina. Oxidizing occurs with Bronze Statuary due to its high copper content. Since bronze is an alloy, it contains mostly copper, along with small amounts of tin and zinc. To keep your sculpture clean and if you prefer to maintain the original finish, it is necessary to properly and regularly wax and polish your piece.

Care for Statuary Finishes
Always use a brown wax to maintain your French Brown finish and a clear wax to preserve your Verdi Green finish. We recommend Kiwi Wax as a highly reliable brand. Available from American Custom Wax: 252-955-0156

Applying Wax
Polishing your bronze with a high-quality wax will protect it from nature’s elements. Polishing removes oxidation build-up and dirt spots from your bronze and seals the sculpture from reacting to moisture.

Use a paint brush to apply wax to your bronze sculpture. Start with a light coat over the entire piece, adding additional wax to areas with high detail. Allow the wax to sit for a few minutes, then buff and polish with a rag or electric buffer. If any oxidation or dirt spots remain, repeat the process once more.

Wax should be applied several times yearly for best results, and more often in climates with extreme temperatures or high humidity levels.

Fountains should be winterized in very cold climates. Ensure that both the water pipes and fountain have no residual water and are completely dry and wrapped before the onset of freezing temperatures.

Care of Sculpture:
Bronze Sculpture and Bronze Fountains require proper care and cleaning to maintain the original fire-applied finish.
