westhemann Posted September 28, 2003 Report Share Posted September 28, 2003 you should read the painting tutorials at the top of the inlay and finishing section Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guitarfrenzy Posted September 29, 2003 Report Share Posted September 29, 2003 I think that might have been the most post in a row of non-working links... lol.. just kidding.. But yeah send them to Brian so we can see what your going for and listen to Setch, your gonna want to read the paint tutorials before you do anything you might regret. One word of advice though, take your time and don't do any type of polishing until at least a week goes by if your planning on using any type of lacquer paint, acrylic or nitrocellulose.

Strange Fruit Posted September 30, 2003 Report Share Posted September 30, 2003 ooooh, Van Halen... paint it yellow, mask with different sizes of maskin tapen and spray black, hmmmm, seems too easy.... Lol i must be wrong in tht case! Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedy McFeely Posted October 1, 2003 Report Share Posted October 1, 2003 i think its actually achieved by reverse masking. start with a base coat, mask every thing except the stripes, spray color 2, mask all but new strip patern, spray color 3, etc, etc. that was the discription i got from VH-Guitarstore, before the accident.
