I'm currently refinishing my old Squier Strat and have a question. I've read Melvyn Hiscock's excellent Make Your Own Electrict Guitar, and in it it says that when finishing in a solid color (ie. non-metallic) it is possible to buff and polish the paint to a shine instead of putting lacquer on. My question is how durable is the paint compared to a lacquered finish? I'm using automotive rattle cans (Ford Riviera Blue) Thanks in advance for your answers.
