Lacquers - What To Use

Recommended Posts

I tacked this onto an existing post but got no answers, so Im starting my own, anyhow...

Hi I'm new to the forum and I must say it is very informative

I have a few questions on lacquers as I have seen some finishes I really like and wonder what product is used to achieve it. Have a look at this

http://www.usmasters.com/finishes.htm

Does anyone have any idea what clear finish these guys use?

Showing my inexperience here but I was under the impression that all nitrocellulose laquers are slightly yellow and if so, wouldnt they slightly discolor the bright stains that are used underneath?

The clearcoat on the US masters guitars looks water white clear, you know, no yellowy tinge

So, can anyone advise me what to use?

Im building an SG so the body and neck are mahogany

thanx
