Default Qualalac

I'm having a problem that is driving me nuts. I've been using qualalac
and it is cracking. I mean lots of cracks. When I first noticed it I
thought it was the wood but the cracks are in the finish. Moisture
content in the wood is not an issue as the pieces that this is
happening to are quite dry at about 6%. I'm mixing the lacquer with
lacquer thinner 50% as per the directions. I'm using a small hvlp
sprayer.
I used to use nitrocellulose and never had a problem. I can't find it
anymore or I would still be using it.
Has anyone had this problem with qualalack or know what is causing
this?
TIA, Bob
