Everbuild Lead Mate Patination Oil 500ml is a specialist finishing and protective treatment designed for newly installed leadwork on roofing applications. It is applied to seal and protect soft metals such as lead, helping to prevent staining and ensure a clean, professional finish from the outset.
Formulated as a white spirit–based surface treatment, it helps protect lead from forming unsightly white lead carbonate, which can develop when fresh lead is exposed to moisture. This staining can also affect surrounding materials such as roof tiles, brickwork, and stonework. By applying a single coat of Lead Mate Patination Oil, a uniform, attractive appearance is achieved while supporting the natural weathering and patina development of the lead over time.
It is especially important in areas where rainwater runs over lead surfaces onto adjacent materials, as this can increase the risk of staining. Suitable for both professional roofers and DIY users, Everbuild Lead Mate provides an essential protective layer that helps maintain both the appearance and durability of new lead installations.
