Building an Acoustic Guitar Kit - Part 10 - Finishing

I purchased a used Stewmac dreadnaught acoustic guitar kit off EBay. In this video I finally get to the pore fill and spray finish. I am using Zpoxy for the pore fill and spraying Target Coatings EM6000 waterbased lacquer.

Good job

Thanks!

Hi there! Congratulations! Did you do the same process with epoxy on the top?

[@GuitaraddictsWorkshop]

No, I did not pore fill the top

[@alphanuevo]

Great video! Thanks for sharing. I'm planning to fix up a pretty beat up old Harmony H165. Do you think approach this might work if the deep scratches are taken care of first and the old finish is carefully sanded?

[@GuitaraddictsWorkshop]

It might work but I'm not sure, I don't have much experience in refinishing.

Why sand off the beautiful epoxy layer?

[@GuitaraddictsWorkshop]

There are different ways of filling the pores in the wood. I chose to sand off the layer of epoxy leaving epoxy only in the pores. Some people put a thin layer covering all the wood. I'm still experimenting to see what I like best.

Sir what do you call the one you apply first in the guitar

[@GuitaraddictsWorkshop]

It is epoxy that I am using to fill the grain.

​@@GuitaraddictsWorkshopиз-за эпоксидной смолы на гитаре она будет скована и будет плохо звучать. Лучше лак.

eBay. The finished product?

[@GuitaraddictsWorkshop]

It was a kit, but the previous owner had assembled just the rim.

Part 11 ?

[@christophernorman2781]

How’s it sound?

[@GuitaraddictsWorkshop]

I am embarrassed to say that I haven't got around to finishing it yet! Have to buff out the finish and glue the bridge on still.
