The wood laquer even if it has a very serious disadvantage concering the health area , it’s a very popular woodworking finish and many carpenters use this method and finish approach .
The musical instruments you see and ther’re so glossy , durable and impressive are usually laquer finished and the result is very inpressive in the eye .
Laquers are usually spray type , but not only .
Their fumes are extremely flamable and in general the laquers need , super extra health measures .
As a quick reminder , the laquers are mixtures of several pigments , resins , polymers , acrylics , waxes and solvents , which evaporates and “leave behind” a very strong and glossy or matte finish .
If you want to see the complete info post for laquers , see it in HERE .
I’ll give you some of the most classical product suggestions , mostly in spray type which is the most easy to apply with a little spraying experience .
The Deft Lacquer sanding Sealer nitrocellulose . ( 1 quart )
This laquer is made mostly as a pre-coat sealer before your final coating , but i think it’s a first class non spray type laquer for many “missions” .
For sure it’s a very good sealer , in order to stop – block any undesired drippings , before your final finish touch . Use it as one thin coat before your finishing and make your final result very durable .
It needs only a light sanding , it applies super easy and the feeling while applying is very smooth and controlable . You may think that the non spray laquers are tough to apply , but with this Deft this is not the case .
Let is it dry between the layers( 10 – 15 min ) , if you want many layers and the result will amaze you , even if Deft isn’t the most known or suggested laquer you see in the markets , maybe .
When the musical instruments creators , say excellent words for it , it worths check it for sure .
The Amazon has it and get it from here .
The Rust-Oleum Lacquer Spray , gloss black .
This is classical black laquer from Rust – Oleum and you don’t need to ask for the general quality . This is a very nice laquer spray .
You can use it to any wood project you have indoors or outdoors and it needs less than half an hour to dry completely . The advantage of its acrylic formula is that it gives a very hard coating .
Acrylics and polyurethane( and water based stuff )are the latest evolution for the woodworking area and they provide serious benefits , the “old days” carpenters didn’t have .
This laquer gives a high gloss finish and uniform smoothness .
