Gabe Nickelson Posted October 15, 2002 Report Share Posted October 15, 2002 I ordered a few sheets of this. I'd like to make a custom headstock logo out of this material. It's only .005 inches thick and looks like Abalone at a fraction of the price. So, has anyone ever used this? What is your opinion with this material? If I paint my headstock and apply this logo before applying the clearcoat, do you think you'd be able to notice the .005 clearance? Save me a hell of a lot of routing. I'm still going with true abalone with the fingerboard. Gabe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted October 15, 2002 Report Share Posted October 15, 2002 .005 thick What 2 fine coats of clear, a slight buff to knock off the buildup on top and a third to level the top and your done......... Sounds cool, I haven't tried it but I would be interested in finding out how easy it is to cut and shape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
