    Hi there!

    I was wondering, has anyone ever tried nail polish as lacquer for scales?

    Just be sure to check with your wife before you waste half a bottle of $$$ French nail polish on a pair of scales. she might object ...

    Well, luckily my girlfriend does not use any nail polish at all.
    So, I was thinking about buying some cheap nail polish for testing. How about that?

    Does anyone have any exp. using nail polish on scales?

    I know! What I meant was: is it a good idea to try it on scales? Would it last? Or will it peel off in pieces after a few months - or weeks???
