| I think I brushed on lacquer on a project I had back in high school shop class. I remember that the stuff smelled really good (not annoying like varnish), and it dried really fast. In between coats, I'd buff the surface with steel wool. We had alternating class schedules (M-W-F for some classes, and T-Th for others). The finish was rock hard dry by the next class time, so I'm pretty sure it was lacquer. Varnish is usually tacky two days later (not really tacky, but it's somewhat soft and is not easily sanded quite yet). Thomas |
