Lacquer

Lacquer

A finish containing nitrocellulose more often used as a sealer. The fast curing properties of this finish are created by using a solvent with a very low flash point which causes it to be very flammable. Ambers little, cures rapidly, but may water spot and become cloudy when applied in high humidity.
