ToneMonkey Posted February 3, 2005 Report Share Posted February 3, 2005 (edited) Alright guys, this is a long shot but here goes anyway. On the steel National resonators made way back around the 30's and 40's they had a finish on them that's kind of like crystals growing under the laquer. In fact as far as I can tell, it's exactly that. Does anyone know how they did this? I've been having a look at Sodium Thiosulphate but I don't think that's it. Cheers guys Kaj EDIT - I've just noticed that I put Dobro in the title - what a muppet Edited February 3, 2005 by ToneMonkey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Setch Posted February 3, 2005 Report Share Posted February 3, 2005 This came up on the MIMF a little while ago. I don't know if it's in the library yet, but it should be fairly soon. IIRC it involved the addition of something to the lacquer, something either derived from mothballs, or a chemical used in mothballs. It's the look which resembles frost on a window right?

Setch Posted February 3, 2005 Report Share Posted February 3, 2005 Who's counting I should really get upto the Reso' centre and have a look at your buddies stuff - I was very impressed by what I saw on his website. I had a nose around the MIMF this mornig, but I couldn't find the post I remembered. I tried a search in the library with no success, so I guess it's still waiting to be archived.
