  1. Thats unreal. :o Abra Cadabra ya know they say 90% of the job is in the prep work.thats proof!
  2. one thing to remember is the wood needs to be properly dried.usually kiln dried to the correct specs.
  3. Nato is often refered to as mahogany and is simalar in looks and sound..I have a takamine with nato back,sides,&neck.It sounds excellant.Very good resonance. Other Common Names: Nato, Nato rojo (Colombia), Mora de Guyana (Venezuela), Marobukea, Mora (Guyana), Mora Moraboekea (Surinam), Pracuuba (Brazil). The Wood General Characteristics: Heartwood yellowish red brown, reddish brown or dark red with paler streaks; sapwood 2 to 6 in. wide, distinct, yellowish to pale brown. Texture moderately fine to rather coarse, rather harsh to the feel; luster medium to high; grain is straight to commonly interlocked, very variable; astringent taste and slightly sour odor.
  4. . Now how exactly is the fretboard bound to the neck ?glue. Why? Oh well good luck, let us know how you do. exit stage right.
  5. KD,what I reccomend is you use a clear spray cans since you don't have spray equipment.Once you have your stain color achieved use spray cans and you should be able to accomplish the same thing. Use very lightly misted coats(alot) then finish with a wet coat or 2.This is just another opinion from another source.You gather all the advice you can and draw your own conclusion.Best of luck.I admire your searching for the correct way before you jump.
  6. Brian you are correct.But would someone talented have to ask this question.With no disrespect to kd I think someone trying to get a good job without experiance in hand application would be wishfull thinking. I asked myself would he get a better job by hand or spray.peace
  7. SOLD -Thank you and goodnight
  8. Home depot sells a epoxy/aircraft stripper.
  9. I've read some articles on the web that say a good brushed on paint job is better then any spray job, anyone here agree with that? No,I would return for a lacquer spray cans.or a poly.
  10. Hello all,1st post. Man I can't see sanding off.I would tape off binding and joint and use a paste stripper.This should save 3/4 of the time.peace http://www.81x.com/Woodfixer/Restorer
