You are not going to believe this, but your polishing music (1st song) is one of the songs on rotation on the US Lowe's customer support line. I spent about two whole business days on that line getting help with not 1, but 2 botched clothes dryer deliveries in August. So I should really hate that song. But I don't. And now I can associate it with finishing a guitar. Rock on, Brad!

I’ve done some work with the Oxford and a gun, albeit not the metallic. These paints come ready to spray, so thinning isn’t usually necessary. I don’t use retarder, but that’s because it’s very dry where I live. In a more humid climate I would recommend adding some.

Hi Brad! Was wondering if using a clear epoxy would work ok as a final top coat. In particular, I'm preparing to top / final-coat a white with black stripe Frankenstrat guitar body. I was considering the 2K clear but with winter weather approaching, I'd like to finish up the guitar indoors. I liked your video titled "How to Brush On a Beautiful Gloss Finish", however since the guitar is predominantly white, the Varathane brush-on will probably result a caramelized looking white.finish. For both the white and black I used Rustolium 2X acrylic gloss spray cans. So a product that caught my attention is called "Alumilite Amazing Clear Cast Epoxy Resin". This seems to be akin to what is used on bar tops. Especially for the Frankenstrat, I'm assuming this would also help even the surfaces between the white and black stripes, as a result of the lower surface after removing the tape. It would be great to hear your recommendations on this.. Thanks!

That’s a good option. It’s a bit thick though, and still not ideal to do indoors. It does give off some fumes as it cures. You may want to check out the stone coat countertops KZfaq channel. That’s my recollection of the name at least. They do awesome epoxy work.

Sorry if I missed this in your series but does the Oxford clear coat require a cure time and if so, how long? Also you've mentioned how fast and hard 2K clear coats are. How would you compare those to the Oxford clear coat besides the fact that Oxford products play well together. I truly appreciate your clear, concise videos.
@BradAngove
@BradAngove 4 ай бұрын
Oxford is a nitrocellulose lacquer, so it doesn’t cure per se but it takes a few weeks to fully harden. Lacquer isn’t as fast in that respect, although it is quick to apply. It’s also not as hard as the 2K. It’s much easier to repair if there’s an issue, but you wouldn’t use it on something like a car.

If you’re good at painting with a rattle can and you’re using high quality paint there’s no real difference, particularly for nitro.

Here's another question. I can't get away with 2 to 3 coats. I never have been able to do that. If sanding, 2 to 3 coats I will always burn through the finish into the primer or wood. How do you get away with 2 to 3 coats if sanding?
@BradAngove
@BradAngove 9 ай бұрын
I’m assuming you’re talking about clear coat, so correct me if I’m wrong because my answer will change. Usually with thicker finishes like polyurethane it’s more feasible. With lacquer 2-3 coats is unlikely to be sufficient. Really though, the smoother your finish is the less sanding you need and the higher you can start with the grits. So if you have a really smooth sprayed finish then you can just sand a bit with 2000 or 25000 to level it off the last little bit before polishing. In those cases 3 coats is often fine (2 isn’t enough).

I really like that color. Might use it on my parts-caster. Is a white primer undercoat required for that color?

No, if you use sanding sealer prior to the color you'll be fine.

The sanding sealer is adequate to get a smooth finish. The white primer is advisable though to set a uniform base color. Metallics aren’t completely opaque. If you plan to use the kit the primer comes with it, so you might as well use it.

I just got three cans to finish my guitar. How long of a drying time between each coat of clear?
@BradAngove
@BradAngove 10 ай бұрын
Of it’s this type of paint you will probably want to wait 10-15 minutes between 3 coats. Then wait at least 24 hours, and lightly with 800 grit, and go again.

@@BradAngove What is the magic number of coats. I have 10 I think an it looks to need very little sanding and buffing. I hate to add more coats.

@BradAngove 10 ай бұрын
That’s tons. The number isn’t always the same. If you can get a beautifully smooth finish with 3 coats that’s great. Most people need more so they can sand and polish without burning through.

Hi Brad ,I have a question I've used nitro clear and it keeps going cloudy on the guitar body. I'm I England so the weather is never that good. Any suggestions.

Yes, that’s blushing. It’s humidity trapped under the surface. If you’re mixing your own paint try using 5% lacquer retarder to slow down the drying. Otherwise, some companies make blush remover (basically slow thinner), of you can probably get it out with a heat gun if you’re careful.
