[Public-List] Laquer for brass/bronze

[R Kirk]

You're right, of course. Except for at home where I've had nicely lacquered barometers, compasses, clocks staying bright for years. But at sea they need constant polishing. If you're a martinet to your crew that could work. (On a destroyer, the lowliest seaman kept the binnacle polished daily.) Otherwise, a green patina is lovely.

Trying to coat quality brass or bronze doesn’t work…  I’d strongly advise against it.
