  1. Hey everybody, Firstly, thanks for the replies, although I'm hearing some mixed responces. I've decided the current paint job is a lost cause, i'm just gonna sand it down and start over. So, is there any non-yellowing glossy finish that doesn't require a separate spray gun. I totally don't care if its varnish, poly, whatever.
  2. Hey everyone, Let me say the obvious, that I'm completely new to painting and finishing guitars. I bought a cheapo Dean bass to play around with and for recording, but the finish on it was boring so i decided to strip it and paint it. Using guides from this and other sites I did all this and got up to the finishing stage where i hit a major snag. This is a picture of the bass after repainting but before finishing, all of the paint was done with rattlecans that are enamel. When I sprayed it with a oil-based polyurethane finish (also rattlecan), i was apparently a little overzealous, as a got major runs in a few places, but even where i put on a smooth coat, it still turned the white parts to a dingy yellowish color... What did i do wrong? From what I gather most people don't like spray cans too much, but i refuse to spend more $ on the paint job than I spent on the bass (80 bucks) Any help would be appreciated and I appologize if this was covered somewhere i didn't see...
