What is the difference between alkyd lacquer and nitrocellulose lacquer?
it depends about the project or application you require as nc or nitrocellulose is very fast drying and higher prices with slightly better look alkyd i prefer as it takes much time for drying so i can apply easily and cheaper price so if u paint in a store and make quick loading of materials go for nc for outdoor bug projects go for alkyds hope that helps
Can you paint over latex paint with alkyd lacquer paint that is for concrete floors?
I wouldn't recommend it. Some of the chemicals in the alkyd will dissolve the latex and the alkyd won't "stick". It's best to remove the latex using laquer thinner or xylene first.

Can you use lacquer paint over alkyd primer?
Yes, the water borne latex paint manufactured today can be covered successfully with nearly any finish imaginable, including an alkyd primer. However, if possible I would exchange the alkyd with any water base primer/sealer. Costs less and the fumes aren't as offensive.
What is Alkyd Primers?
Primer made with alkyd base.
What is the difference between alkyd latex and waterborne alkyd?
Traditionally, alkyds are found in solvent-based paints that must be reduced with paint thinner or mineral spirits. "Waterborne alkyd" is a generic term to refer to an alkyd resin that can be used in a water-thinnable paint. Because alkyds are not miscible with water, a chemical modification is sometimes used to produce a hybrid alkyd resin - often acrylic/alkyd or urethane/alkyd - that is compatible with water. These hybrids are often categorized generically under the term waterborne alkyds. A pure alkyd can be emulsified in water using appropriate surfactant combinations. This type of surfactant-stabilized alkyd emulsion has been sometimes referred to as an "alkyd latex." Different resin manufacturers use varying terminology to describe waterborne alkyds with the terms alkyd emulsion, alkyd dispersion, and alkyd latex being among the most common.

Will lacquer thinner damage clear coat?
Lacquer thinner (any containing strong solvents like ketones , xylene, toluene, etc) will damage any paint, including clearcoat. A single pack acrylic clearcoat is most vunerable(thinners will destroy it.) , and 2-pack urathane is more resistant, but will soften on the surface and lose its gloss if wiped with lacquer thinners. Thinners for alkyd enamels is fine. It is a mild hydrocarbon solvent found in wax and grease remover, and won't damage the paint.

The most common solvent used today for thinning alkyd paint is?
The solvents used to thin alkyd paint can vary as much as the painters do. However, most references point towards using regular paint thinners such as lacquer thinner. However, usually more than 10% is needed. ChaCha on!
