My guess as well. To emphasize your point - always strain. Always...

Well it is high gloss minwax brand. I stirred and stirred, but to no
avail. My older cans were not like this, but they were cold, so i went
ahead and used it. Seems ok. It's a mystery i guess.

I agree with the other posts.
I would add that I always strain any finish going into a spray gun. If
mixing does not make it go away, the straining will get it out.
It could be that a thin skim developed on the surface. Sometimes the stuff
sits or a while or is stored where it is too hot or cold, as it makes it's
way from the point of manufacture to your hands.

Could be coagulated matting compound. I have seen this before. Usually
silica. That can be mixed back with no problem. Watch out that you
don't suspend a zillion micro-airbubbles during the mixing.
As se=F1or Turner pointed out, if it is supposed to be high-gloss, then
I dunno either.

Is it satin or semi-gloss lacquer? If so, that's probably the de-glossing goop
that needs to be fully mixed in before use. If it's straight gloss then I
don't know what you're dealing with, but it ain't right.

I've never seen anything like that in a can of gloss lacquer before, but I
always use Deft brand. Did you try running it through a strainer?
