Thread: Laquer paint and hardener

Tweet

I read a thread not long ago that incuded info regarding laquer paint, and its not being available in a lot of places anymore. It may still be available here in Oregon, at least it was last year. Thought I should get in town and buy a quart before things change, to paint the rear fenders. Now for the question.
I painted the front fenders several years ago with laquer, no hardener. Last year the salesman asked if I wanted hardener. Being puzzled said no. Should I use hardener or not?

Real laquer doesnt get hardner, and it wont lift unless u put it over enamel base paint.

I've never heard of hardner for laquer........
Even with HOK the color coat acts just like laquer but you only put hardner in the clear coat

Thanks for the information. Guess that is why I was puzzled, not painting much and thinking something else had changed.
