Unfortunately my new shop is not well located for sparying lacquer and
I am returning to my favorite method of applying finishes to "average"
furniture, that is, wipe-on gel varnish.
I have obtained this over the years from "Bartleys" and always liked
the ease of use and end result (No-it isn't meant to compete with a
French polish job!). I usually get a good finish with 2 coats.
At any rate Bartleys is not always easy to get and I wonder if
anyone knows of a similar product e.g. GEL wipe-in. (I have tried
minwax wipe-on and it takes about 4 coats, is costly for what it is
and it is not gel'd and somewhat messy as well).
