Are Tamiya TS clear sprays safe to use over Tamiya acrylics?

Sorry for starting two topics in a day, but I couldn't figure out how to edit the title in the earlier post to combine both questions. ...and if I did, it'd be a very long title.

Anyways, this has been something of a riddle for me, although I've never bothered to find out until recently.

General knowledge has it that you apply acrylics over enamels over lacquers, but never the other way around. Thing is, TS clear sprays are synthetic "acrylics lacquers" (whatever that means) which may or may not be safe for acrylics.

Of course, I'd wait at least a week or even 2 weeks before applying the clear coat.

Question is, is it even safe to do so?

Tamiya's US site states that the sprays "are not affected by acrylic and enamel paints" which is common sense. But will the TS spray affect acrylics and enamel paints?
