@@atticus9845 i thought the same as well, but i’m obsessed with painting so i couldn’t hold back. but with other guitars im definitely going to keep it original and keep it the way it is :)

@@TheSharkingSharkLaper you can find one locally , facebook marketplace is a great place to start. as well as craigslist. i never bought my things “new” .. i always got them used or from trades.

@@fronkyy0 always!

hell yeah!!!

@@Fender420 thanks for watching!

@@JAPIT445 i ceramic coated it just last week, it’s really showing it’s good depth in color

@@stevemorgan3964 thank you!

@@Reud07 for clear coat make sure you put your can in some warm water before spraying. apply light coats until you have full coverage. i do about 6-7 coats of clear. i wait about 3 minutes in between each coat. let it sit for about a week in a cool place with humidity control if possible. after a week or 4 days you can begin wet sanding if needed to remove any dirt nibs or runs.

@guitarforall Thank you so much!

@@sammyfata-qb7tf whenever i spray clear i buy “2K clear glamour” clear coat. which has a red canister underneath the can that you have to pop in order to activate the clear coat. i usually end up putting like 5-6 coats of clear coat on a guitar. make sure every coat is light and keeps your distance around 6-7 inches since the spray pressure is pretty strong. 6 coats of clear is good in case you have to wet sand your guitar and have enough to make sure everything is even before you start buffing.

@@guitarforall is one can enough for 5 - 6 coats?

@ yes

@@nuggetstew4380 i used them on several guitars as an initial cleaning. i never use it another time again after that.. just oils. but i will use other cleaning products to make sure i don’t damage anything further. you learn everyday!

@@GuitarsnZFG i always keep the pickup cavities open, it’s a waste of time to tape off the middle since it’s going to be covered by a pick guard anyway. all guitar companies just paint over everything

@@k1t0-n8v thank you 🎱❗️ more to come soon!! follow my instagram! @ nospeed_sx

@@AXEzWILD 100%. nothing beats these charvels , the neck thru , the pickups, the frets , the tone … everything. thanks for watching!

@@The_Mr_Shreddz thanks for watching! more to come soon!

@@ec29w thanks for watching!! very humble to say that i started off with very low end guitars then worked my way up with trading mostly. buying and selling can do it too but it can take forever. trading seems the way to go

Missed your reply somehow, but yes trading is the way to go. I also am building my collection right now, it is not quite where i want it to be but its growing. My prized possession currently is the 1989 washburn ec29 limited edition. Very rare stuff. 29 frets too. 🤘

@@ec29w keep going! i’d trade guitars for amps, cabinets , and many music related things. everyone is always wanting something

@@guitarforall Yea, im currently selling my mockingbird, which is going to fund the restoration of an old st3!

@@DeathMetalBIH it really is, after the 2012 models .. they have been much easier to connect via bluetooth.

@@Composercleo thanks for watching! 2K clear coat is the absolute best. i would only wet sand the color coat if you have any imperfections like dirt , bugs , or runs. i always scuff my paint coat before i apply the clear coat. i use a gray scotch brite pad and lightly scuff up the color before clear coat. and use glass cleaner to wipe down everything before you spray the clear coat , to remove any oils and grease from it. i spray about 4-5 coats of clear on the guitar. your first coat should not be completely wet , just do a nice light coat. wait 5 minutes. 2nd coat, light as well. then 3rd and so on … give it nice coverage keeping a 7 inch distance and overlap your coats about 75%. let it dry for 2 days and then wet sand it all with 2,000 grit , 2,500 then 3,000 and 3,500/4,000 if you have it. use meguiars polishing compounds to achieve a glass like finish. spending the extra bucks really makes a difference. let me know how it goes! please wear a good respirator for this

@@guitarforall Wow hey man thanks for replying so quickly! Okay cool! I have next to no imperfections (not sure how) but I do have the gray scotch brite pads though so I think I will give it a go (even though it will pain me to see the gloss go away 😭.. I know its for a better outcome haha) Thanks for the clarification! Was thinking I had to sand in-between the 2k coats. I do have the meguiars polishing compound and was going to just use a T-shirt to really get in there and give it some love.. (and hopefully build some more muscle haha) Got a good respirator too! I don't want the paint job to outlive me by that much! 😄Thank you so much for the quick reply, I will definitely let you know how it goes!

@@Composercleo removing the gloss from the color coat definitely helps with adhesion. the gloss on the color may cause runs with the clear coat cause it has nothing to stick too. so don’t be shy with the gray scotch brite pad. i used to sand in between my clear coats but i realized it really is a waste of time. 5 coats of clear is good to wet sand with. i always go heavy with the clear coat because it can always be wet sanded and buffed out. ebay has good buffing / polishing pads for a drill attachment. saves time and effort , if your gonna buff by hand use a microfiber cloth because a t shirt may scratch it up since it has strong fibers in it.

@@guitarforall Makes sense! Yeah I won't be shy promise haha since I did have to do it to scuff the original finish (which hurt less since I didn't like that color) Good point on the heavy with the clear since you sand and buff. Also good point on the scratching.. I think I will just get the foam polishing kit that you linked! Thanks for the clarification on all of this, feeling a lot better about finishing off my project!

@@Composercleo absolutely, best of luck. put your spray cans in warm water for 30 minutes before you spray. it helps soften up the material so it sprays out easier too.

@@StoneHands25 i would sand the body down with 400 grit and then 600 grit. to make sure it’s smooth before applying primer. just to remove any light scratches, with dings i would add some body filler to it and sand it down even so it doesn’t look weird whenever you add color on it. little details come a long way

@@wardman21 ‼️‼️🎸

@@BradleyArnold-s2k no

@@danielavellino i would highly recommend using “2K clear glamour” clear coat. it’s a 2 part clear coat in a can and it provides the best smooth finish with very minimal orange peel.

@@guitarforall I was just going to use a two part clear coat that you mix and spray in a gun

@@danielavellino that’s good as well, maybe even better honestly. just make sure your air PSI is set to around like 29 for clear coat. test it out on something else before you spray the guitar. remember to clean off your guitar with glass cleaner to remove any grease or oils
