Lacquer available in hardware store

[Jean-Philippe Regnard]

Hi everybody,
I'm from Canada and i'm finishing my first electric guitar (hope that it's not the last!!!).
I looking for a satin or semi gloss lacquer for my guitar solid body.
However, since it's my first guitar, I don't have all the material to make one completely.
I will equip myself gradually with the next guitars.
For the finishing, i don't have a spray gun so i have to deal with lacquer in spray can.
I'm looking for clear (satin or semi-gloss) polyurethane lacquer (no-yellowing) in spray can which is available in hardware store in canada.
I find this: Varathane Diamond Wood Finish - Outdoor (Water, Satin) available in home Hardware (https://www.homedepot.ca/product/varath ... 1000423123. Has anyone ever used this product for a guitar finishing? Does anyone know of another product that meets my requirements easily available in Canada?
otherwise, I also found an acrylic lacquer that meets my requirements however I do not know it's good as a guitar protection. It does not turn yellow but it does not turn out to be hard when dry.
However, it seems that it has already been used as a finish.
For information, I don't want the discussion to slip on the influence of lacque on the sound. I have already found enough discussion that turns on this topic where everyone have his opinion on nitro and poly laquer. I especially want to have advice or feedback on the practical aspect.
Thanks a lot for your answers.

Jean-Philippe, I don't know anything about that product but I have used Varathane as a brush on finish in a can (on wooden boats) and I remember it as a hard "modern" varnish type of finish - certainly not lacquer. If you really want lacquer I'm not sure this is what I would choose.

There was a discussion on another lutherie forum a while back started by a Canadian builder who said he couldn't get nitrocellulose lacquer in Canada. Sever people pointed him to brands and outlets that had a variety of different acceptable lacquers. I did a quick search and couldn't find the discussion but I know the name of the guy who started it and could PM him. Maybe if you restated your question something like "Lacquer available in Canada?" you would get responses from other builders.
