Hi everyone,
I've decided that for this (my second project - noob here) I would build a Grizzly guitar kit. This kit comes with a quilted maple top. I plan to do a blue burst on it.
I've learned a lot from this site and have a pretty good idea how to aproach this (I think).
I've gathered a bunch of info and this is the plan so far
-prep body, wet, sand do this twice with 220
-mask and spray binding with clear vinyl lacquer
-dye it black with aniline dye. Use strong solution. Let dry and sand back.
-spray with sanding sealer
-spray black for burst
-spray sealer
-dye bright blue until desired brightness
-spray with sealer
-mask neck pocket etc
-spray with clear (no gear, gotta use rattle can) lacquer.
Am I missing any steps??
Can you use a spray (mist) bottle to do dye work?? It seems to me that it would work well for the burst but it is just an idea.
Thanks and take care,
Lonnie
