How do I protect copper in both interior and exterior use?

How do I seal copper for interior and exterior use?

Hi, Richard. This question has been answered several times if you can catch some luck with our search engine. But brass lacquer ⇦ on eBay or Amazon [affil link] or a clearcoat can be appropriate, and if you can precede it with a corrosion inhibitor for copper like benzotriazole ⇦ on eBay or Amazon [affil link] it should be good outdoors.
