I got a tip that Krylon fast drying spray paint was compatible with lacquer so I did a little test on a scrap of poplar. First shellac sealer, black gloss Krylon and, finally, Watco gloss lacquer. It came out just fine - no bad reactions at all Icon_smile

That saves me from have to mail order any black lacquer Icon_thumbup
