All Gemini paint booths utilize a filtered air, paoitive pressure system to minimize particulate in the finish. All Gemini ovens are walk-in (to reduce handling of letters while wet), controlled temperature ovens to ensure accurate temperature for proper curing. Gemini's patina is created using traditional methods using multiple application of heat and chemical treatments to oxidized bronze letters. The bronze utilized is lead free bronze. The green and gold hues that develop on the letter's surface will vary from letter to letter; exhibiting a non-uniform weathered appearance.
