STIR IT, AND STIR IT SLOWLY

Here is a mixture that has been sitting still for over a day.

As you can see, The 80/20 mix of thinner and pigment has separated.  If it was salad dressing, I would shake the container to mix it back up. But since (for obvious reasons) this is not going to end up in my belly, that it not an option.

 You are not JAMES BOND

The reason finishers do not shake containers to mix them, is because this creates air bubbles in the product.

 

Here in the bottom of this pail of lacquer, we can see the silicate has deposited at the bottom. 

IF the lacquer is not properly mixed, and there is not enough silicate present, it will appear too glossy.

STIR the product every day. Slowly to not create bubbles.
