truerussian558 Posted June 25, 2004 Report Share Posted June 25, 2004 i beleive they paint over it without filling in the grain, or that might be another tpe of finish... or maybe its a die, but im not sure just my $.02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drak Posted June 25, 2004 Report Share Posted June 25, 2004 That is an Ash body. If you want yours to look the same, you'll have to have an Ash body too. 1) Fill the grain w/ black tinted pore filler 2) Sand back 'till level w/ a flat-backed sanding block 3) Spray clear finish and sand back until surface is flat 4) Spray a blue-green tinted shader coat 5) Spray more clear coats until you're done 6) Let dry, buff out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
