These are the best guitar finishing videos on youtube.
Thank you!
Agreed. I've watched a ton recently, and this is hands-down the best yet.
Bravo.
Georg Figél agreed.
Hell yeah
Indeed, very well done!
It's finally here! Thank you all for your patience. I've been extremely busy with some other projects, including the construction of my new shop. I hope you all enjoy this one. Best of luck with your own projects!
Is there any alternatives to the StewMac compounds? I just checked their website and shipping to the UK is more than the three bottles themselves
@@MidtownSkyport I'm in the UK and just used the McGuire's Car Swirl Remover and then the Polish after sanding to 2000 grit. It came out incredible!
Does this product protect thin nitro from flaking off? I'm thinking about getting a MJT nitro reliced guitar but I they won't do anything more to seal in the look from production because "its supposed to keep aging as you play" but the nitro is so thin it literally flakes off. I'm looking for something to lock in the finish as best as possible. Thanks!
take note that the p1000 grit sandpaper is not the same as US grade sand paper. p1000 is probably equivalent to that of US600 theres a conversion online somewhere so anyone in the US might want to check it out so there is no mix up.
These three videos are amazing!
Great series. Nice job Lone star.

Thank you very much for these videos. I'm starting this process. Certainly a lot of work.

Thank you for this! Great tutorial!
Your channel is addictive,..........moving on to the next one !...............really well done !
That was extremely helpful. Thank you very much. I subscribed!
Very interesting and instructive !!! Thank you !!
Thank You for helping me out! Appreciate it. Really fantastic Job 👏👏
This series is extremely well done. I’m about to start finishing an ash Telecaster body. I’m sure it’s going to come out much better than it would have had I not seen these videos.
Just wanted to say this series of videos has been VERY informative. Thanks for going through the effort to give such a comprehensive how-to series.
Thank you!
This is the perfect video for me rn! Thanks bro. I even used the same color on my tele just now. Lol
Gonna polish it as soon as I’m done
I have a couple of basses to refinish which I've been wanting to do however it seemed so daunting until I watched your videos they are awesome.
I hope you do more videos!
Excellent video
Thanks dude. Very nice and clear!
Beautiful.
Hands down best how to video on how to work on your guitars nitro finish!!! Helped walk me through getting out unwanted marks on my guitars and honestly got them to look as they did say I first opened the case!!! KEEP UP THE AMAZING WORK and spreading the knowledge!
AMAZING!!!! I learned so much from you!!!!
Thanks great instructions and much appreciated!
Excellent video. 👍👍👍👍
Brilliant, shiny brilliant! - Thank you!
Great videos. Lot's of tidbits I already knew but what most others leave out for those that don't.👍👍
very helpful tutorial which I used on my first nitro paint job ... thanks
I'm just starting to build my own G.. This helps me a lot.. TY sir
you are great! Love your videos!!!
Thanks dude, watched all 3, I'm ready to go
Great stuff. I'm getting ready to build my first kit and yours are the best finishing how-tos I've seen or read so far. I especially like the tip about letting the nitro cure for a few weeks before the polishing step. I'm doing an alder Strat body and going for the cherry SG look.
This series was spot on what i was looking for and really needed. I don't have money for fancy machinery or possibility to participate any lessons so... The biggest possible THANKS TO YOU!!
Brilliant!
Great tutorial - i'll be using this to re-finish an old Ibanez JEM 777. Thanks!!
I loved seeing this process. I've done several nitro bodies, and your process easily showed me where and why I had the problems I did. Your Video is the best of its kind on the web!
Thank you! Glad this helped!
i personally love the look of lacquer sunken into the grain
I don't mind grain but I don't care for orange peel.
Same. Love it even more when you spray canned air and the finish cracks develop under the finish. Looks like broken glass.
@@soyborne.bornmadeandundone1342 I may take mine outside this winter for more natural checking. The kind of cracks that run along the grain. IDK.
Very helpful, thank you
Great video, awesome job, it really works even If don't get those polishing creams, I used those for cars, Thank you for your video.
nailed it man.. awesome
Nice work.
Thank you so much for the detailed steps, also teach me what to expect from a rattle can as a beginner
Great tutorial!
That is amazing 🤩 Thankyou
Man excellent work sir!
When it comes to nitro finishes I don't think there's anybody on RUclips doing a better job of showing how to really do it all by hand he gives great explanations to what he's doing stresses the importance of taking your time in the end result is an incredible looking guitar great job and thank you
Thank you sir, you're my best teacher
So helpful. Thanks!
Awesome job mate. I'm going to have a go with a tinted blue lacquer on a spalted maple body then polish polish polish!!
Great video!
Nice video, it has given me the confidence to do my own lacquer finish on a telecaster body. Next step, start sanding... bedankt en tot ziens
great job!
Extremely beautiful work. Very well done. If you ended up finishing this project out with the rest of the components please let us know if there's a gallery of pictures to check out. I would love to see them!
Excellent - thank you!
Thank you so much. Great job...
Thank you for your vids. These helped me painting my guitar. I really love working with Nitro. To me its easier to work with than poly, My finish coats went on pretty smooth. I have a few more coats to do. Im using aged lacquer on the first few as I want the color to look older(but not relic) I went a little heavier in the areas of the arm and hands and it looks pretty legit. Thank you once again for taking time to do these.
Awesome content bud
Great vids, thank you for these
You're welcome, thanks for watching!
This is hands down the best nitro at home tutorial out there. I just wonder where you are? It’s been 2 years.
Excellent!
Well done sir
Extremely good and thorough video series for those of us who want to refinish at home without professional tools and paint booth. The results are great and the lessons couldn't be more comprehensive.
Thank you!
