Dan Posted November 23, 2002 Report Share Posted November 23, 2002 Ello! Ive currently bought a new body, no bridge routed or back panels, stripped and ive just sanded it. It was dirt cheap off ebay ( £11.50 ) I was browsing around and i discovered Guitar ReRanch. I emailed them about how much a translucent blue aerosol would cost. They replied telling me it was $15.95 and a clear coat is $11.95. They said one coat would do my whole body. The type of finish im looking for is this How could i get that sort of finish with the aerosol? Thanks a lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted November 23, 2002 Report Share Posted November 23, 2002 One can on the color for sure but I would have to say a few on the clear. Even in their own online tutorials they use up to 3-4 cans clearing a body. The only problem you may run across is the finish you are showing as an example is actually a two color finish. On the figured woods such as that most people will dye the wood a dark color then lightly sand off the top before adding the second brighter color hence the 3D tutorial by Kevan. BTW welcome to the forum Dan! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACfixer Posted November 23, 2002 Report Share Posted November 23, 2002 Hi, from a newbie on this forum I just wanted to add that getting two cans of the color is a good idea. The reason, sand throughs. It happens and if it does do you want to wait another week to get a can that might not match exactly over $15? Bill's product is good but I have always bought two cans of color just for emergencies and once I needed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
