Iron Maiden Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 I'm new to this whole customization thing. I'm sixteen and i have an old Westfield that was my first guitar. I fancied changing the colour but have no idea how to do it. I have the information on how to sand the varnish and paint off but i have generally no idea which paint to use, and which varnish. I really want to make something of my old guitar. Any tips and tricks would really help! Cheers! Up the IronS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragyn Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 Do a search in the above solid body area and also on the Projectguitar web site are some refinishing tutorials that I found extremely helpful. Good luck on your project! Dragyn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
