Other Details

Clear Lacquer Finishes are, as the name implies, CLEAR finishes. No pacifying pigment or filler should be employed. Although this may at first sight appear straight forward, major problems can occur as a result of slight incompatibility between the flow agent and the resin base.

Unfortunately, there are no simple methods for correcting this effect,(which invariably leads to a milky looking finish),and as a result the development chemist usually has to carry out exhaustive compatibility trials prior to any full scale manufacture. Occasionally very low levels of blue or violet pigment are incorporated to mask the slight yellowness of the resin or curing agent being used.
