if you are going do this on a car you must ensure that you key up the surface to be lacquered over.you could use 1500 grit and wet flat all the area or if the surface is smooth enough you could just scotch brite the surface with a grey scotch brite and soapy water.you must be careful when doing this that you do not break through the lacquer you are sanding because this will show through when lacquered

Lacquer thinner evaporates quicker. It is cleaner or leaves less of a film than paint thinner. Lacquer thinner will thin most solvent based paint but paint thinner shouldn't be used to thin Lacquer.
