Title: Recommend me a Lacquer for my kitchen cabinets
Post by: homeby5 on March 17, 2017, 06:09:40 PM
I stopped in the BM store today and the guy tried to sell me DuraLaq. I've heard about UltraLaq but he told me most cabinet makers use DuraLaq. Can someone explain to me the difference?
Also, looking for a recommendation for a Pre-Cat Lacquer (or post Cat) that you guys like. I would like them to tint it to a BM color though...if that is possible?
Thanks guys

Agualente by ML Campbell. This is the product we use on cabinets. No need for an explosion proof spray booth. We apply with a Fuji HVLP system. https://www.mlcampbell.com/products/?filter_pa_vehicle%5B%5D=water-borne

I should think the lacquer that you use depends on the base of your kitchen cabinets, no? What material / wood are you using and are you very particular about how the lacquer will stain the material? I'm sure you can do a quick search of the brands and see samples of how the paints will show up on different surfaces...
