I have concluded it would be easier to go buy a unicorn, than to go buy the right lacquer for steinway hammer voicing. Anyway, here is a good writeup I stumbled onto at the MACLAC site: <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><A href="http://www.maclac.com/">http://www.maclac.com/</A> and click on Lacquers for Wood, then and now."</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Dave,</DIV> <DIV>The one thing that raised an eyebrow, was Pre/Post Catalyzed Lacquers resist "reconstitution" once dry. (my paraphrasing). This one thing tells me that it is not the type of lacquer to use on Hammers! </DIV></DIV> <DIV>Regards,</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Joseph Garrett, R.P.T.</DIV> <DIV>Captain, Tool Police</DIV> <DIV>Squares R I</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <P></P></BODY></HTML>
