Okie dokie....thanks for the insights.
...and sprayed quite a few coats on. So, YMMV
Some guy named George Utley said:Lacquer is unlike varnish, polyurethane or paint in one important respect: when it dries, it’s still the same material you had in the can, without the solvents that made it liquid. All the others change chemically as they dry...ordinary lacquer doesn’t. This is important to know because the solvents in the second coat of a lacquer finish will dissolve the first coat...the third coat will affect the previous two, and so on. The more coats you apply, the easier it is to wind up with a mess, and the longer the drying time between coats. This is true whether you’re using a brush-on or spray application.

The more coats you apply, the longer the whole finish takes to cure. Hardened lacquer (like shellac) dissolves when you apply new lacquer on top of it, so as the finish gets built up thicker, it takes longer and longer for each subsequent coat to cure....
did you use different lacquer this time it looks like it burnt in much better scott,, or maybe you were closer when spraying it and kept it wet as you made the next path.
