Brass typically comes in two different forms: lacquered and unlacquered. While the brass itself is no different, lacquered brass is finished with a protective coating to prevent tarnishing. Unlacquered brass doesn’t have this, allowing a natural (and arguably very beautiful) patina to develop. Whichever type you have in your home, you still need to know how to clean brass items to keep them looking their best.
From adding brass hardware to your kitchen cabinets to switching to brass taps and accessories in your bathroom and installing brass light switches and sockets, brass offers a timeless appeal while also inhibiting bacterial growth in bathrooms and kitchens alike.
