What kind op paint do you guys use for the swirling?

Is it oil paint or poly urethane paint or is it something else?

What sort of paint do you guys use for the swirling?

Is it oil paint or poly urethane paint or something else?

YES, indeed! Brain is the Brian!........or was it just the other way 'round?

Anyway, what is the best option?

# Swirl with oil paint and finish with an acrilic clear coat.

# Swirl with poly urethane paint (2 components) and finish with a poly urethane clear coat (also 2 components)

# Don't swirl (incase I ruin a brand new alder JEM body)

If I would use urethane paint, would the procedure be the same as when using oil paint?

What I mean is: Tub with water- add borax- add paint- dip!

Cause I've asked everywhere, but the name Minwax Polycrylic doesn't ring a bell here in Holland (that's where I live )

Hey Brain, is this stuff also available in a spraycan?

So how long does this minwax polycrylic take to be ready for sanding?

And does anybody know the dutch name for this clear coat?

ok, thanks Brian.

But does it get a good grip on the oil painted surface?

And also important is it very expensive?

Or is it posible to swirl the guitar in a tub of water using urethane paint, and then clear coating it with a urethane laquer?

Hi, I'm Johan and I'm a new member!

I was wondering if anyone could tell me what sort of clear coat I'll have to use on a borax swirled guitar?

I'm going to use oil paint so a normal urethane coat is out of the question.

What other options are there?

Please let me know.

Thanks.
