Venom300 Posted January 16, 2006 Report Share Posted January 16, 2006 Just wanted to thank everyone on guitar forum for all the help and questions with refinishing my first guitar. This is a picture of it while the final clear coat is drying. There is still much sanding and polishing to be done but i wanted to let everyone see how it is coming along. I got the idea from this comic book. Tell me what you guys think!! Steven Ps also let me know if there is anywhere in ga that i can learn hands on how to be a luthier.

GodBlessTexas Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 Nice. I'm a huge McFarlane fan and had all the #1 covers for that issue. As long as that orange peel in the pictures isn't under the clear, that's going to be an awesome looking guitar! GBT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am wetsanding today and then probably adding another layer of clear. steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orange peel is that "bumbiness" you get after a coat of clear cures but before you do your final sanding and polishing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venom300 Posted January 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 thanks i was wondering what that was. Is there any way to fix that while you are spraying or is it just something you have to deal with? I was also wondering about wetsanding. I have never done it before and i am sure that there is a tutorial on it but i was gonn ask since someone brought it up. Could someone help me. I don't know whether i should bare down hard and after i sand do i need to add another coat of clear? I appreciate the help Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
