A family member has a whole lot of the R+M Lacquer tints, scale and formula books. Would it be worth it to restore a car in all lacquer? He has most of the various tints to do a lot of popular colors. I have heard that you can topcoat the lacquer with a good quality urathane clear, but is the undercoat going to last? It's kind of an old meets new and since body shops can't spray lacquer, would it be worth getting involved with by a do-it-yourselfer. What I mean by all of this is durability if you are going to drive the car? I know Lacquer isn't the best on color match, unless you do a whole job and even when you are done doing enough coats of it, it may be a shade off. Has anyone considered doing an all lacquer job? I know it's a crazy question!
