I have had a policy of "I do not spray lacquer", that I broke this month. I have been wanting to do some higher end kitchen work using spray stains, glaze, and figured lacquer would be necessary for final product appearance it efficiency of use.

Now, I want to go back to my former policy. I am sick of sweating out lacquer smell (and yes, I wear a respirator with fresh canisters). Anyone having good luck spraying waterborne clears? I have only sprayed Graham's ceramithane once, and it was okay, but it is a little thin for spray work, IMHO, but it feels almost like lacquer.

Any tips or product suggestions for the WB clears on higher end woodwork?

dean, shot some ceramithane and the key was...to use a 411 and crank up the heat to around 75 or so,shoot one coat,let the moisture clear out,then repeat,looked awesome !

Did you use just two coats? I did oak once and was run free until I got cocky and put the final coat a little heavier on the doors and had some runs then. I think I did 3 coats on that job (okay, a 4th to fix the doors)

What kind of wood?

two thick coats on a pine ceiling... imho as long as you crank the heat,and allow the mooisture time to escape you should be fine. agreed?
