     I need to paint a replacement fender on a 1974 TR6 that I have. The color
is Mallard Blue (or green). I believe that acrylic lacquer sales in California
have been banned by the EPA.  I see a store on Ebay advertising lacquer in San
Diego and am not sure how they get around this. I have been told that some
stores would still sell it if you signed a form stating that you weren't using
it on a car.
     Is acrylic lacquer legal in other states like AZ or Nevada? I've heard
that it is also illegal to ship it in to California if you buy it out of
state. If it is still available in adjacent states I might pick up a gallon
next time I visit.
     I believe CA requires all auto paints to be water based now. It seems
unnatural on a TR...
     Any ideas on finding lacquer?
     TIA
