    Hey Simon, thanks a lot! WOW is all I can say!...

    Hey Simon,

    thanks a lot! WOW is all I can say! I didn't know this - but on the other hand, nobody in their right mind would want me to go near a microphone anyway ;)

    Because it is super stuck and I don't want to try messing with it because I'll scratch the finish for sure.

    Meh, I forgot grounding the bridge

    Hey there,

    I'm sure this happens to the best ;-) I forgot to drill a hole from the pickup cavity to the bridge hole (LP model).

    So, after some quick googling here are some suggestions I picked...

    A wholehearted huge thank you for taking the time to write this!

    So far, I have gone through everything that can be wiped one, from Tru Oil to polyurethane, shellac, everything, but I wasn't super...

    Nice idea of painting the inside of the resonator. Haven't thought about this. Maybe add a few LED's inside while I'm already on it ;)

    Hey Simon, thanks a lot!

    Would you prefer painting or applying a waterslide decal? I'm kinda torn here =)

    And btw., Banjos do sound really amazing - the only thing that's kind revolting to my...

    Painting a Banjo head

    So, yeah, I heard guitarist folks hate Banjos. But then, I found this dude on YouTube playing Bach on the Banjo and before I knew it, I had bought one for 50 bucks on the local classifieds :confused:...

    Ha. I am on guitar #5 and my finishing is still really bad. At least numbers 1-4 sound nice and play well. So I can't really complain.

    Nice, the gold looks great on this kit. Which kind of finish did you use?

    Mhhh. I do have some shellac here. But will the shellac stick to the Solarez? I also heard that everything likes to stick to shellac, but will the shellac stick itself? ;)

    Yes, but not the US branch. Maybe I should write them directly. But to be honest, I'm not motivated enough to care anymore. Maybe I'll just paint this thing black and scratch some of the color away...

    Gosh, I hate that stuff with a passion.

    I have sanded it down to as far as I dared. Then, on Sunday when it was sunny here, I added two new coats over the course of a 5 hours, each coat sat in...

    Just a thought, if Acetone dissolves it and you would wipe with acetone between the coats - would that actually help adhering because it softens the top layer? But also, good to know, because if I...

    Yeah, they do have an UV reactive polyester as well, but it's not the "I can not believe..." stuff. It's called UV polyester resin or something. Pretty impossible to get here in Europe.

    LOL yeah, sh.....t happens :)

    In the end, it's gonna be a nice guitar, otherwise it's not the end or something like that. ;)
    I'm pretty sure the error is me. So far, I have built like 5 guitars...

    Rolf, yes, we use the West epoxy for our boats and this stuff is rock hard when it's cured. The Solarez stuff sands really easily and you can also scratch it easily as well, so I think with P240,...

    Yes, I sanded in between each coat. I used P600 sand in between. After that, I wiped with Isopropyl and after it was dry, I put on the next coat.

    I didn't know P600 is too high.... I saw some dude...

    Funny idea :D

    As I don't have any real dedicated place to spray, doing glitter in the house would most probably result in a divorce :D

    But, do you think - if I sand it down to the bottom layer...

    It's difficult to see, but I circled some areas where bits were coming off. The cloudy pattern is not the problem, that is going through the different layers I guess. But right in between, there are...

    Surprise! The Solarez stuff is starting to peel during the final sanding and polishing process!

    Now, I don't know what to do. It seems to separate between the coats. I'm torn between sanding it...
