Deft Lacquer Warning Lot: Nov18-20-19968 - Phlogiston - 08-26-2021

I just finished unboxing a couple of gal. of this GLOSS lacquer that I purchased through Amazon.

It is about 3 time as viscous as it should be, so it requires a lot more thinning. If you are spraying, this is really a good deal. About 3 for 1 in materials - as long as you know to reduce it FIRST.
If you are brushing it ("no thinning required"), I think it is going to be a real sticky mess and way too thick.

Also, A gal of gloss lacquer should be pretty much clear all the way to the bottom - this stuff is not. So it is easy to verify visually.

So be aware.
