        Looking good mate.

        Lacquer usually takes about 2 hours to touch dry........24 hours to fully dry.
        After 72 hours it's ready to polish.

        Like all paints etc, it's weather dependent.

          Ideal weather this Easter. SWMBO was expecting to go for at least a drive over the week end, "They had better be good" she said, No pressure.
