Done properly, the wood comes off, and screws, pins, and top lever come out. Failing that, it's probably best to use a brush and keep the stuff away from wood/pins/screws. I don't know what you would do around the top lever. Ideas, anyone?

If you can paint by numbers you can apply Case Color Lacquer with a brush without removing the wood. If you can't, then have a small cotton rag handy and wipe the lacquer off where you got a little of it on the wood. It's as simple as that.

Why risk damage by removing the wood to spray when brushing without risk is so easy that anyone can do it with perfect results?

Concerning the application of lacquer to preserve colors would mineral spirits be acceptable as a degreaser prior to application? Also how many coats of lacquer do you typically apply ?
