Kenny Posted October 24, 2008 Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 (edited) this is a Hond. mahag body and was prepping it for finishing and i ran into some pretty nasty green/blue/black discolorations. i read up on it and from what i could tell its probably fungi? gah anyways anyone have any tips on how to get rid of this? Kenny EDIT/UPDATE: i mixed a gentle bleach solution and tried it on a peice of scrap....it only seemed to accentuate the problem. i have some A/B bleach aswell but i dont even wanna try that i really wanted the contrast between the colored top, the maple and the mahagony, but maybe i should paint the body :-\?

Kenny Posted October 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2008 yea, i was bummed, but i really didnt want to paint it what i ended up doing was filling the grain with woodfiller and ebony dust...you cant tell its discolored, but when i sand down the oil in the filler ill post a pic.
