How to deal with stains on patinized copper countertop
I have copper countertops they were patina'd by manufacturer. Certain items stain such as red wine and vinegar ⇦in bulk on eBay or Amazon [affil links] , etc. and the bright copper comes thru, I have been cleaning the counters with just Windex Commercial Line ⇦this on eBay or Amazon [affil links] ...Is there other cleaning solutions to blend in patina look ...

Hi, please do not use Windex Commercial Line ⇦this on eBay or Amazon [affil links] on the copper. For cleaning all you need to do is wipe down with warm water and hand dry. Copper is likely the most clean surface in your home. I recommend waxing the countertops if you wish to keep the surface from somewhat changing. The wax surface will act as a sealant.. Good luck!
