[78-L] Layers of lacquer?

[Malcolm Rockwell]

Some lacquers were spun on. The disc was rotated (at an unknown speed) 
and the hot lacquer was applied (with nozzles?) to the surface. The spin 
gave an even coating.

I used to think so, but I’ve seen a few that had a straight edge along the outer rim that indicated to me that maybe a ribbon of lacquer was aid on the discs.  And, I suppose, it may have varied from Presto to Wilcox etc.  I’m sure somebody (paging Dr Biel) out there knows.  It may even have been discussed/answered here before, but not under a meaningful subject title that could be searched, of course.
