Weatherchecking Nitro Clearcoat (transparent)

This "Weatherchecking" nitro lacquer was developed by a lacquer manufacturer especially for "Gitarrenbastler" It is plasticizer-free and therefore quite brittle, which causes it to crack after days even without temperature exposure. You can always apply it on top of thin-layered well-dried opaque or transparent nitro finishes. This paint is very wayward. Customers report: "does not crack at all", "works great", "makes terribly ugly furrows".  The result depends on what kind of substructure you have under the Weatherchecking. As already mentioned, primers and paints that have been applied as thinly as possible and have dried thoroughly are advantageous. As a filler, I recommend Aqua Coat because it is water-based, contains no plasticizers and does not dissolve from the paint or mix with it. The weatherchecking effect can be mitigated by adding regular nitro clearcoat.

Properties:
 

• fast drying
• high gloss
• brittle
• plasticizer-free

With nitrocellulose lacquer, whitish milky surfaces can occur at high temperatures and high humidity (e.g. on sultry summer days). Do not panic, these disappear with repeated overspray.
