C/A Glue (Super Glue) Finish on a Guitar neck?!?!?

s7customguitars.com
I completely finished this guitar neck in C/A Glue. It has all of the strength of a good poly finish without the drawbacks of getting sticky. It also requires no special tools other than a mask, a few pairs of gloves, roll of paper towels and some patience,
This gives a really nice finish that I have enjoyed on a couple of my guitar necks for the last several years and it gives a beautiful gloss finish that will last. It is easy to take care of too.

Superglue changed the world 🤌

[@s7customguitars]

Yes, it really did!!! Now if I can just keep it off of my fingers. LOL

Cool...👍 I'm always ready to learn new stuff man...

[@s7customguitars]

Definitely be sure to wear at least an N95 mask. I normally wear a paint respirator and also don't let the vapors hit your eyes. It burns for sure.

I enjoyed your video. That’s a beautiful finish. Did you use a thin viscosity or medium viscosity super glue?

[@s7customguitars]

Thank you very much. I used water thin viscosity glue. I find that it is easier to spread. If I have a void to fill first then I will use the medium if thick to gap fill first then transition to the thin for the actual finish.

[@s7customguitars]

Thank you! I enjoyed making it.

Polyethylene food service gloves will not stick to the ca glue as easily.

[@s7customguitars]

Thank you, I will look into them.

What happens if that neck needs a refret job?
I’ve finished maple necks with Minwax Polly and it’s never sticky once it’s dry. The flat version is very nice on the back of the neck.

[@s7customguitars]

I will change the frets. The glue finish is done before the frets are installed.

How would this do as a finish on a maple fretless bass fingerboard?

[@s7customguitars]

It would be a good finish for it. It dries super hard and is easy to maintain.

Would be better
