Hi Members,

I would like to add decorative exposed copper plumbing to my bathroom, but I have no resources to reference! Does anyone know where can I find some?

Thank You

Hello Friends,

Ironwood Builders is correct about the solder problem. I have exposed copper piping under a wall mounted sink. I took light sand paper(wet sand) and followed that with steel wool. It brought out a nice shine to the copper then sealed it with a clear polyurethane. I do like the look of my exposed plumbing in a different bath more it was done in chrome to match the fixtures.

Thanks and Regards,
William Hayden
