  1. OK so I have a Squier Affinity Strat, it has been spray painted white and then Jackson Pollacked with goopy glittery gunk. If the drizzles weren't so pronounced, I might not even care. But it's too much....
    I think that the poly(ester? urethane?) gloss is still on there, as it doesn't feel like bare wood. I don't even care if what I do takes off the finish, but if possible, I'd rather just get the other paints off.
    Idk if the goopy stuff is acrylic, oil, watercolor, though I would guess acrylic? And the spray paint is under it. How do I get it off? I am afraid to sop on water or alcohol or dish soap. Or take a sharp putty knife to it and do my best?
    I don't have access to electric sander or heat gun or chemical paint strippers. I have 70% isopropyl alcohol, baking soda, water, dish soap, car wash soap, apple cider vinegar, pinesol, bleach....and sandpaper and old credit cards and my two elbows. Thank you!!!

  2. Hey all! 1st post here, I hope it's in the right place. As relayed in this thread's title, I left boiled lemonseed oil (which I have used successfully before) on my Affinity Strat's rosewood fretboard and it left....splotches? some kind of gross-ish aftermath. So, before I go and mess it up even worse, does anyone have an idea of what may un-splotch my fretboard?? I was thinking maybe scraping with a straight edge, maybe MORE lemonseed oil (but removed after a couple minutes this time!), or maybe just play the guitar as-is and the normal wear-and-tear of sweat+skin will do the gunk removal? I will post some pictures of it here shortly...just glad that this was on one of my Squiers and not my $50,000 Chibson with gold inlays and platinum strings and also the electronics are made of wood! Thanks for any input y'all, especially constructive input!
