I stripped the lacquer off a new brass horn once and the owner wanted to know why her horn didn`t look like her teacher`s unlacquered horn, because it was still all nice and shiny without the lacquer. Lacquer does not produce the finish of the horn. The metal is buffed to a high luster and then sprayed with clear lacquer to preserve that luster.
