Hi Jack, Yes I read that but I have a hard time believing that thier
thinner is any different than any other lacquer thinner. I suppose
there could be a difference. Certainly is a price difference. Problem
is I've been using qualalack for about 6 months and the problem just
started in the past couple weeks. I was looking at the spray gun this
evening and I'm wondering if the air adjustment got turned. The air
adjustment is very easy to turn and maybe it has gotten turned a
little at a time.


Without being familiar with the product, is there a chance that it
just got old? I know I've got a can of shellac down in the shop that
just will not cure anymore, no matter how long I let it dry. It just
got old, and is no longer good.

I don't know this specific product - I do know that with the automotive
lacquers I use (on cars), the thinner is VERY different from the stuff I get
at home depot, though both are called lacquer thinner. I have used the
cheap thinner with DEFT that I get in gallon cans with no problem though
