    Plastic Protective Coatings for Nonferrous Metal

    Protect brass, bronze, copper, and silver from moisture, chemicals, oxidation, and abrasion. This lacquer dries to a clear, hard finish that preserves the natural appearance of polished metal. It provides a long-lasting barrier against tarnish. The aerosol format allows even coverage on detailed or hard-to-reach surfaces without brush marks.
