Hi folks,

I'm painting a small project (electric guitar), and Dupli-Color acrylic lacquer has been recommended. I don't have a spray rig, so rattle cans are preferred, although I've used a Preval sprayer before and could use one to spray something out of the Paint Shop line if necessary.

The color I'm shooting for is a white pearl (I particularly like the Lexus white pearls I've seen). The most economical sequence I can put together uses both rattle cans and the Paint Shop metallic clear:

DAP1689 Sandable Primer, white (aerosol)
DAL1675 Lacquer, gloss white (aerosol)
BSP301 Metallic Clear Coat (from a Preval)
DAL1695 Lacquer, clear (aerosol)

Are all these products compatible? Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Chris

Chris,

Your process will work together. All products listed are lacquers. If you do decide to go with the Paint Shop Metallic then use a non Metallic base coat and not the Lexus Pearls as mentioned. You might end up with too much Metallic. We do offer Pearls in our OEM touch up line. You might want to check those out.
