I did a piano with M.L.Campbell nitrocellulose ( now owned by Sherwin Williams ) and the stuff took imprints, even from a paper towell sitting on it in a warm room, a YEAR after spraying!!! I intend to use Pianolac from now on, and would greatly appreciate some info on its successful aplication, if anyone "cares to share"!
