How Do You Paint Autos With Lacquer Paint?
As the public becomes more environmentally aware, products which harm the environment fall into disuse. Most manufacturers do not produce lacquer paints anymore because of the harm that they cause to the environment. Today, primarily individuals who restore antique or classic cars use lacquer auto paint. These restorations require the highest possible level of gloss and shine, which lacquer paints produce. Acrylic lacquer paints do not have the durability that enamel auto paints produce, so manufacturers suggest that car owners use lacquer paints for cars that will see limited use. Sand the surface of the car with 500-grit sandpaper. Paint sticks best to a car with a rough surface. Wipe down the car and blow it all over with an air compressor. If any dust or dirt particles stick to the car they will mar the surface while painting the car. Remove all such particles by wiping the car with a tack rag. Tack rags contain a sticky substance which adheres to any lint or dirt on the car. Cover
