If a polyurethane varnish (not lacquer) contained linseed oil, it COULD have lead in it - lead is a drying agent for that oil. It was mostly used in paints as a pigment. Varnish has no pigment and it dries by chemical reaction, so most polyurethane varnishes don't need lead.
A mild soap and warm water solution is often the best cleaner for plastic varnish tools. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasives that can damage the plastic. It's also a good idea to rinse and thoroughly dry the tools after cleaning to prevent any residue from affecting future varnishing projects.

Desert varnish is not poisonous. It is simply a dark, shiny coating that forms on rock surfaces in arid environments over time due to the presence of minerals and bacteria. There is no evidence to suggest that desert varnish poses any health hazards.
The coverage area of a gallon of varnish can vary depending on the brand and type of varnish, as well as the application method. On average, a gallon of varnish can cover approximately 300-500 square feet per coat. It is recommended to check the product label or consult with the manufacturer for specific coverage information.
No, varnish and lacquer are manufactured products that are not harvested in the Amazon Rainforest. Varnish is typically made from resins, oils, and solvents, while lacquer is derived from the sap of the lacquer tree. These materials are not sourced from the Amazon Rainforest.
The solvent for varnish is lacquer thinner, but I cannot speak to what the lacquer thinner might do to the woolen item.

Black lacquer is obtained from the varnish tree that yields a toxic exudation. The chemical name of black lacquer is pyroxylin.

As in the stuff you put on your nails? Polish. Really, though, the British have it all wrong--nail "varnish" isn't varnish at all, it's nitrocellulose lacquer.

You'll need to use some lacquer thinner and a wire brush to remove any varnish on brick.
Shellac and lacquer are both fairly easy to identify because they will redissolve in their original solvents. If alcohol (solvent alcohol from the hardware store, not rubbing alcohol) dissolves it then it's shellac. If lacquer thinner softens it, then it's lacquer. (lacquer thinner will also dissolve shellac, but alcohol will not immediately soften lacquer, so do the alcohol check first.) If neither alcohol nor lacquer thinner immediately affect it, then it's probably varnish.* http://ths.gardenweb.com/forums/load/wood/msg0822004022412.html
Yes, the Chinese are credited with inventing lacquer. The use of lacquer dates back to at least the Shang Dynasty (c. 1600–1046 BC) in China. Lacquer is a type of varnish made from the sap of the lacquer tree and has been used for decorative and protective purposes on various objects.
