METAL - LACQUERED FINISH Many metals suffer from surface tarnishing and even corrosion, if left open to the atmosphere / air. Surfaces can be protected through the application of different finishes such as paint or powder coating. However, sometimes the surface of metals can be attractive without a coloured coating. This is when lacquer is most useful. Lacquer is usually applied as a clear coating, leaving the surface texture on view. Lacquer forms a protective clear layer on metals and is particularly useful on brass, aluminum, silver and copper which are often in the form of decorative items. When lacquered, polishing and cleaning will no longer be required. |
