CLEANING

The aluminum Sculptures can be cleaned with Duro Aluminum Jelly Cleaner and brightener. Follow the directions on the bottle. If you leave the jelly on the wire for too long it will erode the wire and make it whiten.

 It's available for around $5 from ace hardware as well as other stores.

PAINTING

I like the way the wires look if they are spray painted with enamel, I've used Krylon Fusion, but many enamels work. the wire dries in a few minutes and hardens in a few days ( don't scratch it before it's had a chance to harden) I prefer a flat black. I don't like vibrant colors because they dominate the piece.
