  Subject: [Shaku] Cashew Urushi vs. Urushi

  Hello,

  I am hoping that some of the list members might have some information. =
=20

  I play guqin and the lacquer is in need of some repair. Cashew Urushi =
is being considered because of a strong allergic reaction to Urushi.

  2 questions:

  Is Cashew Urushi as durable a lacquer as Urushi?

  What does one thin it with?

  There is a commercial Cashew Thinner available but it seems to be =
impossible to get in the US. =20

  I understand the list is dedicated to shakuhachi, but I don't know who =
else to ask. =20

  Most appreciativeley,

  Steve Amazeen
