Well bought some paint yetserday and realized the primer was enamel and the color and clear was laquer... MY Local HS does not carry a laquer primer.. will I be OK using a laquer color on top of a enamel primer?

In a word NO!!! :D

NEVER put lacquer paint over an enamel primer!! You'll end up with a wrinkled, crazed mess!

The reverse would work..............try your local hardware/auto supply houses for some Duplicolor or other type auto primer/paints.

The key is LIGHT coats! Don't try to put lacquer paints on too heavy or the above result will occur. :lol:
