[TR] Lacquer Paint?

[wbeech at flash.net]

Bill,
IMHO I would at least go the HF and get the $10 gravity fed gun and buy a
pint of paint from a local supplier or maybe even a friendly body shop and
give it a try that way.  BTW, if you do all the sanding and prep your body
guy may shoot it for a lot cheaper than you think if you don't rush him.

Subject: [TR] Lacquer Paint?

     I've been considering painting by TR3 steel hard top with a rattle can
on spray gloss lacquer from Home Depot. The top will be utilitarian and not
a show piece obviously. What happens with lacquer when it isn't clear
coated? Does it oxidize if it is kept waxed? Is there a spray paint clear
coat that I can use?
     TIA,

     -Bill in Tehachapi
