I tried the razor but was getting not far. Someone suggested an orange paint remover gel? Not sure if anyone had thoughts on that. Thank you!

Awesome thank you!

Okay great. Thank you so much!

Hello Everyone, I'm FINALLY getting to my rebuild with my oldest daughter. This was an Epi Special in Black. It was sanded down and I started the process to paint it TV Yellow. I'm not a "handy" guy at all so I was looking forward to the challenge. Per the pics, I'm pleased with the body and I'm thinking once the gloss is on, it will look nice. The neck on the other hand I am concerned about...lol. Some of the TV Yellow got to the top of the fretboard. Any ideas and/or tips to try and make that look a little nicer? Thank you all for the feedback!

Okay cool. I can then hang it from the tree in my backyard? As it's nice and open there.

Thank you. And silly question, but when I paint it outside....where do I put it? Do I hang it from somewhere?

Okay so here we go guitar was sanded (by a buddy of mine) and is ready to go. I order the color tone kit for TV yellow and got it today. In the instructions, it said to paint it in a temperature and humidity controlled environment. I happen to live in South Florida and it;s like 91 everyday!!!!! Anyone have a suggestions? Thank you!

Great thank you so much I will check out his videos and subscribe for sure.

Gotcha. I'll research those you mentioned. I'm assuming Clear Satin is a primer? Thank you again!

Great thanks! Any paint you would recommend? Color Tone seems to be the main one for guitar paint. Thanks!

Thank you. I was looking at color tone for the paint. Any idea how many cans I would need of the yellow or the primer for that matter?

Got it. Thank you!

Very true and thank you for the explanation. So the "Pots" really don't have to be changed in an effort to better the sound of the guitar. If I want different knobs, I can get those but the pots inside really can stay the same?

Ah so the pots are the volume knobs. Okay I will just unscrew the hex nuts and take them out. To confirm you mean the hex nuts on the surface correct? Okay I will try to pull off the plugs for the bridge as well. Hopefully I can get this sanded soon.

Ok so here you go. I took out the picks up. I'm assuming the grey wire will be left in there during the sanding? Those pots seem really in there. Is that essential to change for this project? Also I took a picture of the front as there are still some things I didn't take off from the bridge and volume knobs. I'm assuming those need to come off for the sanding. Sorry if this was already mentioned...but how is the best way to do that? Thanks!
