Our nickel hardware is not lacquered, which allows them to gain a natural patina over time. Humid environments such as bathrooms and kitchens can accelerate the ageing process of the hardware.
If you wish to polish the polished nickel handles, we suggest an acknowledged metal polish, which can be purchased in most general hardware stores. Make sure to use a soft non-abrasive cloth when applying the polish to the handlebars and bearings.
Our Polished Nickel hardware goes well with other products in Crome, but Polished Nickel has a warmer, yellowy tone, often likened to traditional sterling silver, whilst Polished Chrome has a cooler, blueish shine.
