The Corten Water Bowls will add a stylish, simple elegance to the garden. These attractive water features are manufactured using Corten Steel ensuring a long life.
The 80cm Water Bowls comes with a welded base to keep the water bowl stable and hasa 25.5cm ring base.
The Corten Steel develops a rich, rust patina over time. This rust layer acts as a barrier protecting the blue steel beneath making the steel extremely strong and durable. During the weathering process the water bowls may have some carbon or rust run off which can cause staining.
Weathering New Corten Steel Products can take from 2 months to 2 years, depending on ambient conditions of where the corten is placed. Corten steel will produce a oxide run-off (rust, in a very fine particulate form) when weathering that will stain paved/stone/concrete (any porous surface). The run-off is perfectly normal and will decrease over time as the steel matures.
Water bowls - as they weather whilst containing water will get a residue in the water. This is the oxide run-off that is suspended in the water. You can refresh the water as required, with care where the old water is deposited as it will cause staining if poured on to a paved surface (as above).
If possible, we recommend weathering your water bowl on its side to weather 'dry', then applying a varnish, like 'Owatrol Rust Oil' to seal the steel from the water. This process will give the clearest water. Owatrol Oil is safe for birds and dogs - please allow 2 weeks to fully cure before allowing animals to use the bowl. We would also advise rinsing and drying before adding drinking water for the first time.
Do not scrub the inside of the water bowls ever as this will expose new steel and cause the water to be coloured by the oxide particulates, making it orange. Rinse off with a garden hose any excess residue when refreshing the water in the corten water bowl.
Corten Steel is a special steel originally developed for bridge building and skyscraper construction due to its incredible strength. When the steel weathers it develops a dense oxidisation layer which protects the blue steel inside. If this protective layer is compromised, it will simply form a a new skin to protect itself. This makes Corten Steel extremely durable and gives it far higher resistance to atmospheric corrosion than other steels.
