noob Posted April 17, 2003 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2003 Hi noob and Welcome to the forum Looks like a crack or chips missing out of the clear coat, is that what it is? Sorry for not asking clearly. That is actually my second coat of metallic silver. I sprayed too much on that potion and it dripped down the guitar. How can i repair it? I dont want to respray the whole guitar (If possible) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted April 17, 2003 Report Share Posted April 17, 2003 Ahhhhhhh Actually what I would recommend is to let it dry (cure) completely and then hand sand it smooth being very careful with a fine grit of wet/dry paper going up in grades from 320 to 1200. You should be able to save it, it is just a matter of having the patience to wait for it to dry first then taking your time to feather it back out smoothly. Of course then you can clear over the entire job and it shouldn't be noticable at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

syxxstring Posted April 17, 2003 Report Share Posted April 17, 2003 gotta love spraying silver. no matter what type of paint it is it seems the hardest to spray. probably due to the metalic composure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChandlerPelhams Posted April 17, 2003 Report Share Posted April 17, 2003 If you want to cut the sanding amount down, and risk sanding through the paint around the drip, you can VERY CAREFULLY after it has cured shave off a little bit of the excess paint. After you have taken it down to almost the paint level, you can sand it down like brian said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
