The drawer pulls in the kitchen are brass and getting discolored. Karen at a craft show saw someone who had a pile of solid brass pulls for fifty cents each so she but a bunch of them. Never thinking that the base would be much smaller. The ones on the doors and drawers have a significantly larger diameter base and left a ring imprinted in the wood. Today at Lowe's we found some polished brass washers that are a perfect match to the knobs that she purchased and the washer fits inside the ring on the wood from the old knob masking the mark. The only problem is that the hole in the washer is significant largerthan the screw so aligning up the washers is a little tricky. I think a little craft glue will help here. Anyway enough history now for my question. There is nothing on the package indicating if they are coated. Do you think it will be ok to use as is or should I purchase a spray can of lacquer. Hate to do that for 22 small washers but don't want another problem? These little washers are on the expensive side, 90 cents for a package of two..
