jonnyfontaine Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 have any of you guys much experience with that shielding paint? does it work well? where is the best places to get it? can it be tinted? do you have to apply it over any sort of sealer? but most importantly does it work? thanks... jonny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batfink Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 Yes it works extremley well but i doubt it could be tinted anything more than black as it's graphite in, the stuff i've got, a water soluble solution so it's grey to start with. If your stateside i know Stew Mac's sell it, this side of the pond i had to go to an electrical component supplier. As for sealer: i don't use scratchplates (pickguards) so only use it in cavities and these are already painted - i'm not quite sure how well it would take if you wanted to use it in a Strat type situation.

DGW Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Shielding paint requires SEVERAL applications in order to really be effective. Put a meter to the cavity and check for continuity to make sure it's doing it's job. If shielding is a problem, I'd recommend copper foil over shielding paint.
