Troubleshooting

Lacquer is not drying properly.

Ensure proper ventilation and check the temperature and humidity levels. High humidity can slow down the drying process. Apply in thin coats.

Lacquer is peeling or flaking.

Ensure the surface was properly prepared (clean, dry, and sanded). Apply the lacquer in thin coats. Ensure good adhesion.

Brush marks are visible.

Use a high-quality brush or roller. Apply thin, even coats, and avoid over-brushing. Consider using a spray gun for a smoother finish.

Lacquer appears cloudy or has a milky appearance.

This can be caused by applying the lacquer in high humidity or over a surface that is not completely dry. Ensure the surface is completely dry and the environment is suitable before applying the lacquer.
