Most 2k lacquer will yellow over 60c. Have never found a high temp one yet that works. Pot life is more like 3 to 5 hours as soon as the can has been activated the hardener is working.Spray nozzle will need cleaning after every coat and it needs to be done in a controlled environment , 15 to 20c and dry air.

Easy to lacquer a large flat area, than a undulating surface. Just polish the covers and keep buffing to keep them in good order
The original Honda Lacquer was a etch lacquer that had a acid in it. This has been banned for many years, maybe you will find it in the outback of china somewhere
Is that I clear coat ? It looks like a dipping process. I had a NOS new 500 four clutch housing in. The flat outer face had no coating on it whatsoever but, the rest did.
