Installation and Care of Authentic Solid Cast Metal Tile

Bear Creek Bronze offers Specialty Tiles, 2” Tiles, 4” Tiles, and 6” Tiles in our 5 unique alloys: Bronze, Copper, White Bronze, Yellow Brass, and Aluminum; and our 4 hand worked finishes: Burnished, Brushed, Polished, and Oil Rubbed Bronze.  Once you have received your Bear Creek Bronze Tiles, installation and care is a simple process.  Bear Creek Bronze Tiles can be installed using virtually the same products as ceramic, marble and stone tiles.  However, construction adhesives and industrial epoxies can also be used.  For fireplace surround enhancement, a high temperature silicone adhesive or a high temperature mortar is recommended As Bear Creek Bronze tiles age, they will develop a natural darkening known as “patina”.  We manufacture our tiles with the premise of allowing the natural aging process to occur.  Be aware that once this process has begun, complete reversal is impossible.  However, If you wish to brighten aged tiles, we recommend using a metal cleaner/tarnish remover on copper, bronze, or white bronze tiles.  A metal polishing creme works well on any of the alloys to brighten and shine the tiles and can be used instead of a metal cleaner.  Most metal cleaners are not suitable for aluminum, therefore a metal polishing creme is recommended for this alloy.  If using a metal cleaner/tarnish remover, we highly recommend following with a metal polish or light coat of a paste wax to seal the tiles and prevent further darkening.  Follow the instructions carefully when using any type of cleaner or polish.  An occasional light coat of a past-type wax applied to the tiles will help preserve the original color.  If darkening or patina is not desired, simply seal the tiles with a clear lacquer.
