I prefer brushing lacquer myself. It's self-leveling so I don't have to worry about brush strokes and I can catch runs before they have a chance to dry that way. I occasionally restore old radios that were originally finished in lacquer but often I'll have to glue up loose veneer or replace it which never matches the original well, so I'll usually spray on some Mohawk toner to even the color out before I brush on the lacquer. I'm afraid that, with spraying I'd get runs I couldn't really do anything about as it dries so quickly. I usually use a semi-gloss finish. It also doesn't have to be perfect and I think it leaves the radios looking how they originally would have looked new. Another great thing about lacquer is that it is easy to strip the old finish off with lacquer thinner and a bunch of old rags. And I can use cheap brushes to apply it with. I usually go with 0000 steel wool between coats :)

Basically it’s garbage but fast. Horrible for everyone. It’s production fast yes, but it’s garbage compared to modern acrylic alkyds. Also, going matte to cover up zero prep so you’re covering up shit work. Copy. Stuff is funny tbh.

A cup gun should work fine. Depending on the size of the tip, you may need to thin a little with lacquer thinner.

Man, I like your style. I see all these fancy shops and the way they explain, makes everything so complicated and so much time consuming. I’m in the same boat with you, I have $700 HVLP spray gun, $500 HVLP spray gun and bunch of $50-$100 guns, really can’t see much of a difference in spray quality. I build kitchens and custom cabinetry, I need stuff done fast and I feel so many times the cheaper guns get me running faster and I don’t care if any of these get damaged. On the expensive guns I would clean them multiple times a day and at the end of the day, but when you add the thinner cost you realize you spend more on cleaning than buying a new cheaper gun every once in a while. keep it up!

Late to the party! What is your take on fumes? With spraying polyurethane and shellac I never really had enough fumes bulld up to be a potential hazard. In your case I see a normal upright fan. So I assume you haven't had any issues with fumes burning off. Would you suggest an explosion proof fan or would a box or upright fan do the trick? Ultimately I plan to build a spray booth, but am just now dipping a toe into lacquer finishes and want to be safe!
@Truewoods Жыл бұрын
For safety and codes I think a spray booth is probably the way to go. I personally believe if there's enough fresh air it's not a problem, but don't sue me if you blow yourself up.
