TeiscosRock Posted August 7, 2005 Report Share Posted August 7, 2005 Would this help the fastness of a gloss neck? Or would I need to use some fine-grit sanding paper to do this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jester700 Posted August 7, 2005 Report Share Posted August 7, 2005 Yeah, it de-glosses it, like having a satin finish. Not quite as ORGANIC as an oil or no finish, but better than the gloss, IMO. I use whatever's handy- 0000 steel wool, the equivalent scotch-brite (synthetic steel wool), or extra fine sanding sponge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeiscosRock Posted August 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2005 Thanks. I'm going to be refinishing the neck and body of an old MIJ and I would love to get a similar feel from the neck, and the only way i could do it without marking up a perfectly good finish is the steel wool or scotch-brite. With the MIJ i lightly sanded with some 400 grit after fixing the headstock, and the semi-rough matte feel is wonderful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
