I have a couple questions about refinishing, hopefully you guys can help me out.

1. What guitars come with laquer on them new? Gibsons, Fenders, Kramers? Do they come with laquer? Or is more like, some companies use it and some dont? For what reason would you put laquer on, is it for a protection?

2. whats grit sandpaper should you use on a maple body right before putting on sealer?

3. What guitars use primer? I heard that older fenders dont? do most companies use it?

4. Once sealer is on do you have to use fine sandpaper on it? Once primer is on do you have to you fine sandpaper on it? Once paint is on do you have to use fine sandpaper on it?

thanks
