Best Answer

If you are talking about adding a finish to wooden materials, this is why: Unfinished wood is susceptible to rot and water damage. When you add a coat of finish or lacquer, what you are doing is adding a protective layer that will repel the water and keep the wood from the elements. The finish will help your wood to last much, much longer than it would naturally. The same can be done for metal materials as well. Metal will get a different type of finish than wood, but they both pretty much serve the same purpose. This is simply to protect the metal from the elements and prevent rust and eventual break down of the metal.
