The clear coat on top of paint is usually a urethane not a lacquer. I would imagine that multiple coats would be OK to build up to fill a scratch given adequate dry time between those coats.
You mean the same clear coat that goes on top of paint? How thick can it fill?
"lacquer"... hmmm, not sure where that came from.
That's a term from the old days...
We used clear urethane with 20% flex and a little brown for tint. We sprayed several different proportions to get the right shade. I know it works on scratches because we had to scuff the existing lens for paint ...
I am going to try and spray the rear window in my SS. There are a couple of areas on my rear window that need "attention" from the buffer that accidently happened during body install.. By spraying a similar solution on the rear window, I hope to;
1. tint the window
2. fill the scratches
3. Hide the orange defroster element in the glass
This photo shows the degree of tint I chose to use. . The tinted lense in photo is from other side of same car. You can see some of the dullness was removed after the "painting" of the lense.
The Urethane is tough. It polishes and shines a lot better than the plastic lense too. You can see the difference in the shine between the two lenses. The difference is evident in this photo
