Not much wrong with paint finishes, rattle cans can be great if used well.

I know right! Had some awesome guitar riffs come out of the 90's too.
I sanded back the body today, cleaned up some runs and re-sprayed 3 coats (20min intervals). Came out really good. Hoping one last set of 3 will be enough. Still have a few small dents, most i'm ok with but there is one one the front that is annoying. Anyway still looks pretty awesome.
I also sanded back the primer on the headstock front and respired more primer as i wasn't happy with the finish, but has come up a lot better now. Ready for white colour spray next time the weather is kind.
Any ideas on the neck finish?? I was thinking of using Teak Oil??

Cheers, it got cranked up in anger for the first time in a long while today. It’s settled nicely you may find that your will seem pitchy and horrendous to tune at first. Persist.
Make sure you get the string guide bar fro the headstock, it helps pull the strings down over the nut and really seems to assist with holding tune even without the lock nut clamps on.
You will probably want to invest in a better nut eventually, the stock ones aren’t great and it’s very easy to strip out the threads on them.

Not keen in the yellowing but if it’s 10 plus yrlears then not fussed. Silly question but do you need to do anything to the fretboard (finish wise) as it seems pretty good already.
