    Default spraying laquer

    any advice on spaying laquer from an aerosol , i have no prob priming and then using colured paint , all is good

    Make sure the object is warm, not hot and apply light coats if you can warm the can over too very lukewarm I find helps it not bloom, and build it up. that way it can be cut and polished back.

    Put the can in warm water for a while before you use it. This will help.

    I do the same as Rich on the lacquer.. First coat to seal it, then 2nd coat almost to the point of running so it keeps a wet look Very fine line between looking wet and running though!
