EN: to plate with brass
It's like when you're so into that brass/bronze aesthetic for your condo, you want everything to have that metallic, slightly vintage look. 'Tansuin mo 'yang door knob para magmukhang antique.' It means to cover or make something out of brass.
From 'tanso' (brass) + '-in' (verb suffix). 'Tanso' itself is from Hokkien 'tâng-sú' (bronze).
Not a very common verb. It's more common to hear 'yari sa tanso' (made of brass).
