withstands
outdoor wear and tear; pitting, fading, tarnishing, corrosion,
discoloration
and rust. It also provides the highest resistance to
abrasion, chemicals
and acid. This is why Eternity Finish™ is added to every
exterior
Westmore product with a brass finish. PVD is a 100%
environmentally
friendly manufacturing process.
