Advice

Hi,

Im about to embark on a custom guitar finish and was looking for advice.

Basically i will need to paint a Jem style body with a green/yellow burst.

The body will be purchased from a luthier and will have no primer. If possible, all work will be done using spray cans.

Could somebody provide me with a brief step by step list of what needs to be done (i will research the steps myself, i just need a list of steps ie do i paint it yellow first and apply the green after etc..)

Thanks

Yes, yellow first, then green. There are a few good painting tutorials in the tutorial section, along with the "poor man's burst" which I think will come in very useful in this project, good luck.

Try this, and have fun.

Better practice on scrap first, I find that there are a LOT of variants of green, you want to be sure it is the shade of green you really want before applying can to guitar.
