This is another one, that was about 9 months in the making. This is a piece of copper tubing. I spun it in a drill, and cleaned it with sandpaper to take off tarnish look.
I then coated this with 3 coats of (drum roll please), yes, you guessed it, Por 15. This is the clear Por 15 rust preventative.
That the stuff they claim completely seals out moisture.
After letting this sit for about 9 months in the moho, with no heat, nor ac, with plenty of humidity during rainy times, and it still looks just like it did when I coated it.
No areas showing any discoloration from moisture. SOOO,,,, that opens up some possibilities for using copper inside, and still maintain the non-tarnished look! Wahoo...
