Metalized
Unique and lasting skulls can be finished using a patented cold metal
application which preserves 100% of the skulls features, using 95% real
metal and 5% a polymer binder that reacts with the metal to form a composite.
Finishes are available
for an elegant, historic, antique look or a more modern, bright, futuristic
look.

Antiqued finish is essentially staining of the metal
with strong acids. The piece is then polished to remove the patina over the
majority of the skull to expose the metal underneath, leaving depressions in the
piece darker, which brings out the rich features of the skull.
Modern finishes are obtained when the skull goes
through six polishing stages to achieve the highest degree of polish available.
The last stage is done with a flannel polishing wheel used in conjunction with a
high quality wax.
The Antiqued or Modern finish will need polished once in a while, or it
can be allowed to patina naturally. A jeweler's polishing cloth is included for
you if you choose to have just the wax finish.
ClearCoat
If you'd prefer it stay the way it looked the day you receive it, then
consider having a patented ceramic, crystal ClearCoat added to your order. This
finish is extremely durable, and will require no future polishing to maintain
the appearance. ClearCoat is virtually undetectable.
Repairs
Damaged items can be repaired prior to the metalizing process.
