Tips to determine whether the Brass has been Lacquered
There’s an easy way to ensure the lacquer-related status of your brass as described below:
If you spot tarnish on the brass, it’s probably has not been lacquered. “The best possible chance it hasn’t been because the most important part of lacquer is to prevent tarnishing,”.
