Can I use this on copper sheets for a side table?

Hello, Yes, you can use this on copper. But I think you'd be better off with Krylon Crystal Clear Rust Protector clear gloss acrylic spray. It's a little harder and dries faster. I have never used either on a table top, mostly on smaller areas of ceramics or jewelry. I don't know how well either would hold up on a table top if the surface gets a lot of use and it would probably not resist marks from hot mugs, etc. Surface also must be completely clean, with no traces of metal polish. It also might be hard to get an even spray cover over a large flat surface area. But I can't think of anything else that might work, except maybe Deft clear gloss brushing lacquer. (You have to work very fast wit this, and wet-on-wet.) Good luck!!

Sorry.... used it on brass with a satin finish so can't answer your question.

I have used Trewax for years on all kinds of wood items. I have never tried it on copper so I really do not know how it would react. Perhaps you might try it on a small, relatively unimportant item and see what happens. If it does work, it would be nice if you add your experience to Amazon so others would also know. Good luck.

You can achieve a good patina that looks like it's on copper by using Sophisticated Finishes 2-part patina kit. I would suggest using it on the copper colored metal so that if some shows through it looks ok. If you're working with sheet copper (the real thing) then use the same company's one-part patina for perfect results every time.

I would never chance it. There are silver polishes that work like a charm. I only use this on my copper.

So far yes you do. I found some copper cleaner at the grocery store. I think you can also use lemon juice and baking soda.

Hi, David! You should have good results using it on your copper table tops. Artists and craftsmen who work in bronze and copper often use it to protect their creations. It's also used on copper sinks, range hoods, and countertops. According to the manufacturer, it is food safe, so even using it on a dinner table would be perfectly fine. If you're new to paste wax, don't forget that it's the real deal; a little goes a long way. You want a nice, thin coating. When it is sufficiently dry (experiment with this) then buff away. You'll be hooked on TreWax in very short order. This stuff is wonderful! Hi, David! You should have good results using it on your copper table tops.

I have never tried it on brass or copper, both of which have cleanersadvertised, but if you buy it for silver, try it. Brass and copper aretough metals to clean, silver is far easier.ss

I love this little machine, but it is small. I have done napkins and small tablecloths. I think sheets would be difficult.

I have the product. Like it but my copper pieces are for decoration only. Sorry. Call the company for an answer.

Yes. I used it to stuff in around wires in conduit to keep mice from getting into the junction box. I had used steel wool but the damp area caused it to rust out. The copper will solve this problem and you should work for you too.

I don't see why you couldn't use it for that. Remember, it is quilted and the outline of the furniture pad may show through your table cloth. If you don't mind that, I say go for it.

I would say maybe, it depends on the material of the floor mat and how big the mat is. I use this in hobby making attached to copper and works quite well. Try sticking a small piece of this on the floor then see if you are able to remove it without much difficulty. It may work better on the floor then the mat ontop of it.

I don't think that would work, unless you used something really strong, like duct tape. There's enough weight to this table cloth that regular tape wouldn't hold it.

I don't see why not. I've used mine on leather, would, and thin sheets of plastic and brass. Nylon might fray a little though?

I do not know if it can be used on copper or not. I guess you could try it on a part that does not show first to see if it works. Sorry, but I did not use it on copper.
