Greetings,

           Is using laquer the same thing as actetone? Also, (coming from a 
family of auto body finishers/painters) I know that laquer thinner melts laquer 
and laquer based keytops, but straight laquer over wool? How thick is the 
laquer? Or is it named "laquer" for piano purposes, and is what it truly is, is 
laquer thinner with laquer melted/dissolved into it in a really thin solution? 

Thanks in advance,

Good point. And the reason I've never used this
method. But, since it's been around for a  while, I'd
guess it was originally intended for the celluloid
type, which makes it like nitrocellulose laquer, so
just use lacquer.
    Easier, and doesn't get unidentified old cooties
from the keytops on the hammers.
