ACRYLIC LACQUER
DESCRIPTION AND USES .
Rust-Oleum
®
Acrylic Lacquer is a premium automotive coating
designed to provide a lustrous, durable finish. Acrylic Lacquer dries
quickly and has excellent adhesion to bare metal. Rust-Oleum
®
Acrylic Lacquer can be machine or hand buffed for an even glossier
finish. This product is ideal for use on cars, trailers, RVs, and other
automotive accessories. Rust-Oleum
®
Acrylic Lacquer features an
advanced spray system that allows you to spray at any angle, even
upside down for those hard to reach areas. A comfort spray tip with a
wider finger pad reduces fatigue caused by continuous spraying.
Note: Do not use Rust-Oleum
®
Acrylic Lacquer over existing air-dried
enamel paints.
