G'Day Fred,
I'm tempted to say until it goes hard, but I guess I might be stating the obvious. Bill's comment of not allowing air to get in over time is the right idea & a long time ago I read of a trick which I still use to keep paint useable while stored & this was to store the can upside down. This way no air can get in plus all that thick goop that normally settles in the bottom of the tin will be on the lid & can be gradually mixed back in.

:With a new project roadster on the drawingboard for the next few years,can I purchase lacquer and store it?I'm more convinced that it may not be available when I get to the painting stage in a couple ?? years.How long have we kept lacquer unopened on a shelf folks ? Your feedback greatly appreciated as always.
: Fred
