NitorLACK N260765108 Nitrocellulose Lacquer Trans Candy Apple Red 500ml Can

The NitorLACK N260765108 is a 500ml semi-transparent nitrocellulose lacquer in Trans Candy Apple Red, an iconic Fender custom color introduced in 1963. Inspired by the deep red sheen of caramelized apples, this was Leo Fender's favorite color. The striking metallic effect is created by applying this lacquer over a silver or gold base coat, allowing the metallic particles to subtly shine through and create depth.

This lacquer is perfect for use with spray equipment and is a favorite among guitar builders looking for a professional-looking vintage or custom finish. For best results, use a base coat such as NitorLACK Silversparkle (item no. N260767108 or N250004160) or Shoreline Gold (item no. N260774108 or N250774160). Finish with a clear nitro topcoat for gloss and long-lasting protection.
