GGBO 2023 Kit - Episode 14 - A Fresh Start

LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, COMMENT!
Episode #14 This episode, I sanded off all of the previous Sonic Blue and StewMac Clear Gloss Lacquer. Next I used Z-Poxy as a grain filler in hopes of smoothing the guitar without any grain showing through the final finish. Next I'll be spraying a Vinyl Sealer and brushing on TotalBoat High Gloss Marnie Varnish. Stay tuned and join us each week!

    I'd use car paints and finish with regular 1k matt clear, also car stuff. Matt has the advantage of looking great and no level sanding or buffing! Always a bonus lol. I do 3 coats, 15 minutes apart. Leave at least 24 hours then I'll very lightly sand any roughish feeling areas with 2000 grit dry. I hate trying to do a gloss finish, it gives me nothing but grief! 🤣

    Finish is the toughest part for me. I've been working on a Music Man Stingray inspired bass for months that I've finished and sanded off twice now. I'm actually making a different body out of elm that I can oil finish so I can get the project done and work on the original body without the pressure (I just want to hear how it sounds!) Best of luck on the next steps

    Hope your dad is ok man, sorry im so late back to the party... You might want to check your camera or lights, your refreah rate when you ramp the speed of your footage is crazy

    Thanks man 🙏🏼 The lights are LED in the garage and it causes the bars when the footage is sped up. Not sure how to fix that unless I switch out all the lights for incandescent.

    @13stitchesmagazine try changing your frame rate from 50 to 60 FPS that might help... might not work but worth a try before changing all your bulbs 😀
