Finding the right person with the skill set and knowledge to restore this type of metal is difficult.  There are many people that will say they can do the work or will attempt to fix white metal.  I believe most shops can perform minor repairs like adding a new tab or soldering an old tab back on.  But beyond that advanced skills are required.  Many antique dealer trust and use my skills and experience  to restore their metal frames, chandelier arms and bases.  Click for more  metal work →

slag glass lamp repair restorationBefore I offer the option of painting a metal lamp shade or base I need to know the conditions and express my approach to each project.
Basically the process I use is a cold form of painting which was performed by many manufactures during the turn of the century.  Not to be confused with metal plating.  I first evaluate the metal by removing and testing a sample spot of the original paint. After testing depending on the type of metal I may sandblast, grind or wire brush prepping the metal before painting.   A typical air brush approach is 1 coat primer, 2 base coats and 1 coat clear sealer.  An optional 1 coat 5-10% decorative can be applied.  Past painting project click HERE
