Paint and lacquer solvents generally fall into the flammable liquid hazard category. Some, however, are not flammable because they are water-based, rather than organic solvent-based.

Can you put acrylic enamel over acrylic lacquer?

If the Enamel is an original baked finish there should be no problem. Many DIY touch up paints are made from Acrylic Lacquer. If however the enamel is air-dried then the solvents in the lacquer will react and cause the enamel to bubble and craze. Enamel paints become hard on the surface but stay soft underneath if not baked to harden them. The lacquer is able to penetrate this outer layer and react with the enamel paint.
