I am remodeling a home and installing a standing seam style metal roof. I am looking for a dark shade of copper (towards brown, not green)and the only copper shade samples I can find are too bright and shiny. Anyone know where I might find a supplier of an interesting shade of copper...everyone seems to have the same color(s) based on my web research. Thank you!

I would recommend possibly using a bronze color (bronze, antique bronze, burnished slate)but if you were wanting to stay with the copper material to go with something brushed and that would give it the darker look

Nick, thanks for your reply. I can't find the shades you are referring to. Everyone has a dark bronze or a shiny copper, nothing in between. I just want an aluminum material the color of a beat up penny. I spoke with a guy in TN today and he told me no one makes that color, but he gets a couple inquiries a year for it. You would think that shade would be a no-brainer for manufacturers. Thanks again

There are some browns with that sort of color. You may also look for color names like Aged Copper. Todd Miller

Found a new product: www.precoatmetals.com The new colors, textures and styles are very interesting. I found out about this today after visiting a local supplier who just received samples. I think these could really become popular. I found what I was looking for. Thanks all.
