Is matte finish just a trendy way to hide imperfections?
Could it be that the popularity of matte finishes is more about masking flaws rather than aesthetics? Are we sacrificing durability and vibrancy for a fleeting trend, and what does that say about our approach to craftsmanship in DIY projects?
Is it possible to achieve a true matte finish without using any gloss coats?
I've been experimenting with different finishing techniques on my guitar, and Im curious if skipping the glossy base entirely could yield a desirable matte look. Could this approach lead to issues with durability or appearance, or is there a chance it might provide a unique aesthetic that traditional methods can't achieve?
