Nitro Lacquer Question

[cole]

I was wondering if anybody knows of a supplier that has nitro lacquer that doesn't have the additives that the behlens instrument lacquer has to keep the finish from checking?

[Mattia]

why, if you don't mind me asking?

All insturment-grade nitro lacquers have some plastifiers in them.

Not certain, but I believe the regular Behlen's Qualacq is without the anti-checking additives.

If you're using a spray rig, I think McFadden's is what you're looking for. If you want rattlecans, try Reranch.

I do vintage restoration and some clients like the checking when I do a refinish and as thin as I spray the finish it doesn't always check so easily

I asked them at lmi about their lacquer and they said it has the same mount of plastifiers as behlens
