Hi to all on the board

I just bought a Washburn WD18SW solid wood mahogany acoustic in a satin finsh.

I want to apply a spray on Nitrocellulose finish

Can I just put the nitro over the satin finish? Or will I need to do something else?

I checked the tutorials and did a search but did not turn anything up for satin to Nitrocellulose finish

Any help is appreciated! John

Okay, is it okay to use something like Teak Oil?

BTW. should the stain be water or oil based?

Oil based stains will be dissolved by lacquer solvents and migrate thoughout the finish.

Screenprint the white logo on the waterslide decal stock. When you spray lacquer topcoats over the decal, spray the first 2 or 3 light so as not to 'bubble up' the screenprinted logo, but enough to melt the decal into the basecoats. The waterslide decal stock is micro-thin lacquer.
