With Lacquer we are talking lacquer primer sanded to perfect, applying four coats, sanding it, four more, sanding it, four more then sanding it to absolute perfection and then polishing it to a mirror.

Did I have any finger prints at the time...nope.

This will be my 3rd and hopefully, final round of sanding.

I love the look of a well done lacquer finish, I bet those old Fords looked fantastic
