can it be applied over duco (lacquer paint) as a clear gloss

Generally speaking, it is always best to stick with the same brand and type of paint for all coats, primer, base, color, clear/top coat. Lacquer can not be used over enamel, but enamel can usually be used over lacquer with no problem. I am not sure if the Rust-Oleum clear coat is enamel or lacquer, but, since it is being applied over lacquer, it "should" be OK regardless. To be safe, it should be tested on a separate test piece or in an inconspicuous area. There is never any way to guarantee that different brands of paint will be compatible, but, in most cases they are.

I have never tried that,But I won't see why not,It is a great top coat, but I have never used it over any other polish other than Vinylux polishI do apply several times a week

I would not apply it over paint. I strongly doubt that it would adhere well and would not be maintainable. I would suggest maintaining the surface with the original paint instead.

Gloss paint yes, Flat no. Use least abrasive for painted surface and test in an area that won't show. Be VERY careful not to rub thru. What kind of coating on plastic surface?

Assuming that the wipe-on poly finish is thoroughly dry you shouldn't have a problem using this buffing system on the piece. I've used it to buff over Watco and Minwax wipe-on oil finishes, and rattle can spray lacquers with no problems.

This is a Plasti Dip enhancer. It is meant for use over matte Plasti Dip to give a gloss finish.

Yes, I have tried this over normal lacquer polish. The only trick is that you must make sure that the Lacquer polish is completely dried before the Gelish Top It Off is applied. It does help the lacquer to chip less The Top It Off works on metallic lacquers best.

The simple answer would be Yes, It sticks very well and could be applied on anything BUT...how well it sticks, is going to depend on the surface finish of what you apply it to. A clean High gloss paint would be best IMO.

Absolutely! Today I was polishing a car with both single stage black enamel and lacquer and it works exceedingly well. Even using a wool pad, you would be impressed at how nicely it finishes. As others state, you will need to follow with M205 or something to refine the marks left from compounding. In other words, it is not a one-step product. Worked *carefully* with a microfiber applicator or towel, it can be used by hand, but I would only recommend this in spot applications.

As long as the painting does not have a high gloss sheen, there should be no problem. The Clear-Seal is a blended urethane acrylic and will adhere to any standard oil or water based paint. if there is a high gloss sheen, you would need to use a deglossing chemical or a very fine sandpaper. Please let me know if you have any questions. Best Regards, George Carson Exterior Performance Coatings 630-675-4509

I would likely use Minwax or polyurethane, both in the paint dept. of Home Depot, or could get through Amazon. Polyurethane will give you a higher gloss finish.Why I used this >> was to stain kitchen and bath cabinets darker that were '80's oak'. I then used this topcoat over the base gel stain.

I bet it can...but the soft nature of Plastidip may not add much if anything to it. Why not just go with a spray paint low gloss clear coat? it will be more durable in the contact wear areas imo.

I used it on some interior detailed brass statues They look great, and I expect the Brass Lacquer will preserve there brilliance for many years. I have a Copula on top of my Garage with a copper roof an a copper flying Goose weather vein on top. I haven't properly lacquered the roof yet but I did bring in the Goose & cleaned it very good & applied 2 coats of the Lacquer in October 2013 an it still looks great. It was the first time I had even thought about a protective coating to show off the copper finish. It seems a shame people purchase cooper or brass decorative outside attachments for their homes, as myself, and feel it the norm to let them fade to Patina (oxidation). When you can coat it and keep the cooper or brass luster you bought it for. I can't wait to Lacquer the Cupola roof. Longevity is a question an abuse from the elements, but for as good as it looks, it seems worth putting on the Spring Clean-up list. Hope this helps. Ya can't loose by trying. A proper cleaning & prep is the key before applying.

It should work really well but be careful. It is not recommended for clear coat paint.
