Nitro-Lacquer
...
Hi Greg, This may just be a typo but a lacquer finish is by far the
easiest of all finishes to repair. Most lacquer repairs can be done
simply by adding more lacquer to the affected area. Even blushing can
be repaired occasionally by adding more lacquer. Blushing is not a
lacquer problem but a problem created by the person applying the
lacquer either by applying it when the RH is too high or by an
incorrect mixture.
Lacquer having the ability to melt the previous layer is what makes it
so easy to repair. And unlike other film finishes you can spot repair
rather than having to refinish the whole piece. Bob

Sorry, yes, it was a typo. And you are correct about the blush, but
due to the rapid evaporation of the solvent, it seems to me to be more
prone than some other finishes. Low temps seem to aggravate it as
well. *Not a problem for me, as I work in a semi-controlled environ
only during certain times of the year. (Full moon. In leap years...)

Hi Greg, Yes I have to agree about the blush but only when conditions
are incorrect.
I hope all have a nice holiday. I have actually sent a letter to santa
requesting all get that turning tool they have been wanting. All
except for Greg who I have requested that santa send him a half dozen
highly colored exotic hardwood boards for the kaleidoscope turning we
all expect to see from him the first of the year. :-) Sorry Greg I
couldn't resist. All in good fun. Bob
