how to choose the longest lasting outdoor brass lighting?



Good make sure that it is manufactured in SOLID brass and that the fixture is rated for outdoor use.


Nothing but make sure that it is manufactured in SOLID brass and that the fixture is rated for outdoor use.


Brass is an moderate of zinc and copper and without a lacquer finish it will tarnish. When a fixture says it is "Solid Brass" it only just means that it is entirely made out of brass without any other metals...it is not actually solid (or it would be too heavy). Brass plated is usually a zinc or aluminum secure with a brass coating. Brass plated doesn't make the top of the list in this situation because you have 2 coatings that could peel and/or hurt. I would use a fixture that has "Solid Brass" listed in it's description and be sure to make unshakeable it has a weatherproof or strong lacquered finish. There are a variety of fixtures out there that meet these requirements. Check out Minka's Renowned Outdoors line or Quiozel's Outdoor line.

How can I get the rust off of my outdoor brass light fixtures?



There is a stanbdard cleaner for brass acclimatized by military guys, because they are required to keep all their brass spit-polish/mirror clean. Used to be called "Brasso", but I'm not unflinching if this specific brand is still available. Once you get the brass clean, consider some kind of anti-corrosion treatment because brass usually gets corroded very quickly.

What do you think about brass outdoor fixtures?

We are re-doing the fixtures on the case of our house-mailbox, light and doorbell. We have a white vinyl sided ranch with black shutters currently we have lowering mailbox and black light. Do you think brass would look cheap or would it give the front of our house a little sparkle? I'm effective to replace the current ones no matter what but I just don't know what I think about brass. Please help!


Please don't use brass. It is very dated! Very very dated! There are so many wonderful mailboxes out there. Here are some links to inspire you.
