Classick Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Hi All, Just wondering if anyone has used this product before: http://pro.everbritecoatings.com/portfolio/shelter-point-distillery/ (aside from shelter point obviously) As Im sure you can all relate to, polishing the still and keeping it nice and new penny shiny is a pain in the butt. I was just looking into any high heat coatings that might work for helping to keep the copper looking nice and came across this stuff. I spoke with tech services, and they said they did even make an ethanol resistant version of it, to protect against drips and what not. We currently use a citric acid wash to clean (or left over wine), and then we polish with a metal polish, but after a week of operations the luster wears off and its back to old penny look. Thoughts?

indyspirits Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Let it patina like an old penny. Save yourself the frustration. You'll have a thousand other things more important than keeping your copper shiny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skaalvenn Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 I'd like to know more about this. Personally I love the slight patina our copper has after a month of use, I'd be really interested in knowing if the coating will keep it at that stage.

Classick Posted April 27, 2017 Author Share Posted April 27, 2017 When I called them to inquire about the product I specifically asked about the temperature range. I suggested that our still gets between 200 and 230 degrees and she said that wasn't a problem at all. If you click that first link apparently shelter Point Distillery used this application and they have this as a case study on their website period I actually put in a call to shelter Point Distillery to see if they were happy with the product I'm hoping somebody gets back to me.
