Warren, you may have it a little "thick" you might try reducing it a little more with thinner. I also move the cabinet around so I can shoot to a flat surface and get a nice wet coat without running. I hate runs. Using a spray gun takes a little practice to get the air pressure right along with the fluid feed and of course how thinned the lacquer is. I use a small HVLP gun. I have a couple others for delivering a lot more product if you wish to paint a car. When you get the combo right, it lays nice and flat. It often takes me some adjustment to get it there. A 50/50 for lacquer to thinner is a fair start but depending on temperature I often move to 30 for lacquer and 70 for thinner. It doesn't lay down much lacquer but the delivery flattens out very well. That would be the extreme.
