Matte Finishes Are Easy to Care For
Matte finishes are extremely easy to care for, and they don't show dirt like other types of finishes. The one thing you will want to avoid when cleaning matte finished fixtures is caustic chemicals and abrasive cleaners that can damage the finish if rubbed too hard. The best way to clean a matte finish is to use a mild mixture of white vinegar, dish soap, and warm water. Spray and wipe with a soft cloth. You can make this process easier by pre-mixing a special spray bottle of this matte fixture cleaner that you can then use anytime you need a quick wipe or clean.
Matte Fixture Finishes Are Fashionable and Gorgeous
Let's face it, the main reason homeowners and business owners choose matte fixture finishes is for the aesthetic value. Matte fixtures always look fashionable no matter how styles change. And, since styles seem to always be recycling themselves, you can rest assured that your matte finish will always look good. Another great reason that matte finished fixtures are perfect for any style and time period is that they go amazingly well with brass fixtures and elements in your office or home. For instance, if you have brass candle holders and a mirror, your black matte lighting will help to give your space a rich, warm feel.
Matte Finishes Are Daring and Bold
We all need a bit of adventure in our lives, and let's face it, it can be hard to be adventurous when you are stuck in the daily grind of life, career, and kids. Matte finishes offer a certain quality about them that can make you feel adventurous. Even the smallest matte finishes, such as towel bars, baskets, and shower fixtures, are edgy, adding an element of mystery, too.
