For all of the Metal Artwork, both Wall-Hanging and Free-Standing:
The metal panels used in all of Nicholas Yust's metal artwork are fabricated from high quality, heavy gauge industrial grade aluminum. The textured metallic surfaces are created using several signature grinding, sanding and polishing techniques developed and perfected by the artist. The materials used to create this piece and the protective coats applied are suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.
Mounting brackets are included with your wall-hanging metal sculptures (centered and attached to the back of each panel) and the sculpture
comes ready to hang at your home, office or business. When placed, we
recommend that you have a bright white light source focused on the artwork to
stimulate and maximize reflectivity.
Metallic shine is guaranteed. Each panel is packaged and shipped carefully to ensure this (view our Metal Artwork Shipping Page for more details). All of the artwork is shipped insured, so if by any chance the shipping company damages the piece in transit, PLEASE contact us and Nicholas can provide the information for a damage claim.
All sculptures are photographed with gallery lighting. We
suggest placing the sculpture near a bright light source. Quartz
halogen bulbs are suggested, which are typically found in track
lighting.
Artwork Care and Maintenance
Metallic shine and acrylic coating are guaranteed. All exposed metal and acrylic areas should be cleaned with conventional products such as 409.
Even a soft rag with warm water would be recommended for removal of simple dust and smudges. Although the sculptures are created from metal, they should still be handled and treated as you would any other fine art. Excessive touch, rubbing, scratching, and other such contact with the surface of the sculptures can and will damage the piece, often times permanently.
DO NOT USE ALCOHOL BASED PRODUCTS, BLEACHES OR ABRASIVE DETERGENTS
