Trial and ERROR

[gw_guitars]

Hi everybody,

I thought I let you know what I did with the paint job om my homemade explorer style guitar.

I'm new to the forum and this is my second visit.

You could say this is the story of how to get a divorce in two simple steps.

Step 1 : Start building your own guitar.

It's an addiction. You can't think of something else.

Step 2 : Paint your guitar.

Today at work I was constantly looking at the clock to get home.

I was going to paint 'the beast'

I had three coats painted on the guitar, not with a spray gun but with a brush.

It looked nice but I was not satisfied. I was going to sand and polish it.

It worked rather nice but it took to long.

Well, I have a spray gun but never worked with it so, I sanded the beast and hung it on the porch (is this the right spelling?)

I took out the spray gun and began to prepare things.

I sprayed before but only with can's.

What happened?

Well, while spraying I saw that the floor was beginning to turn to 'ferrari-red' also the carbage can and a bycicle wich was standing about two meters away.

I panicked and began to wash the floor with terpentine. While doing that I banged my head to the guitar wich was hanging there. The side of my hair is now 'ferrari-red', also are my fingernails

I thought: Now I'm in trouble !!

I called my wife and my daughter and you won't believe it : They almost peed (correct spelling?) their pants.

Conclusion:

Think before you do!

Don't rush into it!

Most important: Marry the right wife

By the way, the guitar has to be sanded again and the paint job on my hair is nice (but I'm not going to sand that)

Greetings
