I was wondering if You could help Me, I have a black gloss Washburn Parallaxe that has the Stephen’s Extended Cutaway and 5 way bolt Buzz Fieten tuning System. Same as most if not all Nuno Bettencourt guitars. Do You recommend this and can I paint over the Black? If Not I’m Just gonna do pin strips on the upper

@BradAngove

4 ай бұрын

What are you asking if I recommend? You can paint over the black, but you would need to sand the gloss first to allow the new paint to stick. 400 or 600 grit should be fine.

I’m about to do my fourth custom guitar and I want to paint the top one color, and the back and sides another. Do you have any tips as to how I should mask it off, or whether I should spray the top first, or the sides/back first? It’s an Ibanez RG120 so it has a pretty tight radius on the edges and relatively flat top

Spray the whole thing one color, let it dry, sand smooth, and then tape and spray your top color.

@BradAngove

Жыл бұрын

I’ve never tried that combo; I hope it goes well. I’d give the Oxford a least a week, but it depends a bit on the temperature and humidity where you are.

because it's lacquer, can I wet sand it with like 1000 grit and then buff it like I would an automotive paint job?

@BradAngove

Жыл бұрын

Yes. My only comment on that is be careful wet sanding it if it’s on wood. Moisture can get in and swell the wood a bit, which will likely cause the lacquer to crack.

Do you have something that screws right into that spot the neck connects to?

You can hang it, it’s just slower and more difficult. If you’re only doing one or two guitars it doesn’t really make sense to buy a rig. They’re just nice to have.

Brad, when repainting a body should it be sanded down to the wood or just to the protective poly? Then whats the timeline with primer, my color and 2k clear? I was thinking applying primer 2-3 coats, let dry 24 hrs, apply color 3 coats, 10 min apart, let dry a week, then 3 coats 2k clear and let dry for a few weeks before sand/buff/polish.

@BradAngove

No need to sand to the wood usually. You can use the existing paint as your primer. Then the timing depends on what paint you’re using.

@bradangrove Hi Brad, I would like to pimp a guitar as a project for a KZread video on my channel. I actually want to decorate it with blue rhinestones, but I saw a video of someone who did that recommending to spray paint it in the colour of the rhinestones first. Seems sensible. I will be buying the guitar especially for the project, just in case it goes wrong 😅. Thought a blue one might save me the spray painting, but I can’t get the type of guitar I want in blue, so I will buy a second hand one (most likely brown) and then spray paint it blue. I would love some advice on this (and when I do it, I would be more than happy to link your account👍🏻😁). - as I have to go from brown to blue, would you recommend spray painting it white first or isn’t that necessary as I will be covering it all in Rhinestones anyway 😅? - I saw someone mention in the comments that it requires warm weather for spray painting, but I would love to do it in January. Unfortunately, it’s winter here (Europe). Would it work in the cold? Our flat isn’t that big and as I don’t want to poison anyone, I want to do it outside…. Sorry for the long comment, I didn’t know how to describe it shorter 😅. Best wishes, Carolyn

@BradAngove

8 ай бұрын

I’m not sure what kind of temperatures you’re dealing with right now, but painting in the cold is a bad idea. It won’t dry properly. Even painting outside in the summer can bit a touch risky. I would do a couple coats of white to start before applying your blue unless it’s a dark blue, in which case it will be easier if you do a black base coat.

do i have to put oil before the primer? if so what oil?

Brad, have a question for you I am painting a body a pearl white tri coat system with 2k clear. The body is basswood so I didn't grain fill so much, i did a little in bad spots that had tool marks or a lot of pores with drywall mud. I sealed and primed it with 2k epoxy primer. I have all the base and pearl on several coats each. Sanded it a bunch of times after priming sessions and the 1st base session. Im still seeing some small pores / divots in spots do you think the 2k clear would be enough to fill them in or should I sand it back some and redo the pearl first?

@BradAngove

2K can deal with very minor divots, but it’s definitely better to get them out before you clear coat.
