I think original organisol was lacquer? Lacquer can and does crack , but I agree that I have never seen that type of paint end up looking the way that one does either.
yes lacquer I have a quart right here. It was never had a shine like that. And do not see the what I think looks like black, Gray and silver micro flake and a very light texture.
Guys texture. Guys try and duplicate it by shooting a semi or flat paint rough.
Remember decals were applied to it so was not rough like guys do.
Yes I have shot lots of it. And Gray Argent as,well as Light Argent.
