Matter of fact, some cheaper brand aerosol spray cans found in big-box stores have Lacquer as their contents.

Our government here in California definitely had something to do with lacquer paint. I can no longer buy lacquer paint in California. I have the stuff shipped out of state to a relative and he forwards it on to me. I can not buy the good slow lacquer thinners in California so I have to make up my own. I can buy the retarders out of state that slow down the lacquer thinner and have them shipped directly to me and I can buy the basic lacquer thinner and here in California and I mix my own "slow" thinner but the California Government will not allow the "slow" thinners to be sold in California.

I still use Acrylic Lacquer but it is getting harder to do.
