Hi,

Is there a good way of preventing the shiny copper pipes from fading?
How about spraying them with exterior poly? Would that hold up to the
heat of the hot pipes?

I had a friend who used to do a lot of copper art work and he always
used lacquer on things he didnt want to age. Not sure how this would
work on hot water pipe though.
