I have now sprayed mine, looks great but am wondering about laquering.

Have you guys laquered yours? How does it look? Matt or Gloss laquer?

I'm sure if it's not laquered, the first stone chip will ruin it?

If you guys have any pics of your results, please post

Thanks

Nathan

That's what I've done. Two coats so far. Laquer or more coats?
