u are talking abt using lacquer as base and enamel layer on top, then remove the top enamel layer using thinner rite?
if yes, then zippo lighter fuel should be fine enough to remove the enamel layer, it wont remove the lacquer base layer,
since the fuel is not strong enough to remove lacquer base paint.

nv actually tested b4, but heard they say is not recommended, most of the time they
will apply a clear coat b4 the enamel, and it need to be fully cured only apply enamel paint on top.
coz enamel is stronger, the thinner inside might actually eat through if acrylic not cured enough or
apply too thick enamel. based on wat i understand.  tongue.gif
