renablistic Posted December 7, 2003 Report Share Posted December 7, 2003 Today I started a new project. A refinish. For my squier P-bass. here we go.... I covered the whole body with pieces of duct tape.... the clear coats going on tomorrow. It looks cool. Any opinions on this type of finish? Am i crazy? or stupid?

IWishICouldShred Posted December 7, 2003 Report Share Posted December 7, 2003 haha i love that kind of finish... i did that with my friend last week on his Duo-Sonic. And don't light that cigarrette while you're putting the clear coat on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renablistic Posted December 7, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2003 I light a cig about ten seconds after spraying a clear coat (in the same room) everytime, sometimes even smoke while spraying, to keep the hands calm... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westhemann Posted December 7, 2003 Report Share Posted December 7, 2003 reminds me of zoolander...when the guys sprayed each other with gasoline for fun and then one of them lit a cigarrette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Litchfield Custom Gutars Posted December 8, 2003 Report Share Posted December 8, 2003 I light a cig about ten seconds after spraying a clear coat (in the same room) everytime, sometimes even smoke while spraying, to keep the hands calm... Acxtually I light up before. I get a relly nise nicotine yellow tint to the clear. For a relic, spray in a bar. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angry_jeremy Posted December 8, 2003 Report Share Posted December 8, 2003 I did the duct tape finish on a Squier strat about a year ago. I was taking off the paint to refinish it but I didn't have the patience to sand the finish off in the cutaways by hand. The only problem I had was getting a smooth cover on the rounded areas so it didn't pucker. Looks cool though. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
