: I like this idea, but.. how long have you had this on your boat? I wonder if,
: after a few years, it might go from brown to green/blue. I know this takes
: a long time, but a kayak that is used a lot is a bad place for metal, all
: the salt water and fresh water and other nasty stuff. On the other hand,
: it might look good as slightly corroded metal, like one of those antique
: windvanes.
: Just a thought.

I coated the copper with epoxy it bonded just fine.
