What oil based cresting paints are compatible with gasket lacquer?

Been trying the gasket lacquer and like it so far... but need to know... What oil based cresting paints are compatible with gasket lacquer?

I think I have this correct, if not somebody will speak up.

You can put enamel over laquer....but you can't put laquer over enamel.

I use TESTORS model paints over my laquer crown dipping.  I don't think it holds up as well as laquer cresting paint but it does work.

I only use acrylic paints with gasket lacquer so can't answer your question directly.
But keep in mind that while "enamel" used to refer exclusively to an oil-based paint these days it refers to any paint that dries to a hard finish. There are a lot of water-based acrylic enamels on the market now.

Javi. In our shop we use testors then put a spray laquer over it for crest prtection. A couple of coats and I get very little shelf burn .
