Boss & Stud is used for a concealed mount where drilled and tapped bosses are added on the back of the plaque. Threaded studs for concealed mounting to brick, stone or cement are used or round machine screws.
Flat backed plaques do not have bosses – they have drilled and tapped holes.
HOW-TO-DO-IT
Countersink screws are the smallest plaque mounting option.
This method of mounting is typical for mounting on a park bench or memorial wall. Plaque is mounted to surface using construction adhesive or by bolting from the rear. This option can be used on almost any surface. Wood screws can be used to fasten directly into timber or machine screws selected for mounting when fastening to a solid wall such as concrete.
HOW-TO-DO-IT
Once the background of the bronze plaque has been painted, the surface areas (these are the raised letters of lines of artwork) are highlighted by sanding (flat areas) or buffing (sculpted areas). To inhibit natural oxidization, a clear, protective coating is then applied.
Satin Bronze — The Natural metal colour with subtle horizontal grain lines.
Polished Bronze — The natural metal color buffed to a high gloss, obtained by polishing with successively finer abrasives, then buffing with fine buffing compound.
Chrome Plated Bronze — The raised surface of the bronze plaque is polished to meet the polished bronze specifications. The background of the plaque remains in its “natural sandblast” state, providing contrast with the polished raised surface. The entire plaque is then electro-plated using a standard commercial copper/nickel/chrome plating process.
Protective Finish — In order to protect the natural, highlighted finish of a cast bronze plaque a Clear Protective Lacquer is added providing a low gloss appearance, this clear coating was developed to help ensure many years of carefree maintenance.
