Apologies for a dim question...

What is a lacquer pen and what is supposed to do?

RE: Dim Question


Apply touch up paint, 1 or 2 layers etc.

Rub gently with a 'metallic paint only' T-Cut until you are happy with the finish.

Then Apply PROTECTIVE laquer.

Job Done

So in American-speak it's the "clear coat".
