I am just about done building a ported riser for my 79 LaScalas. I was wondering if anyone was familiar with an off the shelf black lacquer spray paint that is close to the Valspar/Opex #40 black lacquer that they use when the LaScala is built. I searched through a number of threads. One note said Ben Moore makes a semi-gloss black lacquer that is close, but I am not able to find that anywhere. I was wondering if anyone could make some suggestions on what to try first. I do have a company locally that sells the Valspar #40 and clear, but I am not so sure of my ability to get a good finish with a paint gun. I typically get pretty good results with spray paint, so I want to give that a try first.
I am willing to try any paint or lacquer that might match. I am not looking for perfection. I just need to narrow down the large list of possibilities. I am trying to avoid buying 25 different spray cans to find the right one.
Thanks,
Mike.
