Will the bronze finish fade?

Troubleshooting

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires precise measuring to ensure the arm remains level. First, determine the distance between your wall and the glass panel; the arm must be cut or positioned to bridge this gap accurately. Secure the bracket to the wall using wall-appropriate anchors, then fix the glass clamp firmly to the screen using the provided protective gaskets to prevent glass-on-metal contact.
For care, wipe the support arm down with a soft, damp cloth after use to prevent hard water deposits from accumulating on the brushed bronze finish. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh acidic cleaners, as these can strip the finish and dull the metallic luster over time.
