    Have just painted my headstock where I plugged the holes. Give the primer time to shrink back before committing to your top coat and gloss. Even after doing all that I could still see the old tuner holes. Just saying. I used Nitro tho.

    +1 to this. I had similar experience with plugging tailstop anchor holes in my LP build. At least 48-72 hours cure time per coat (Rustoleum 2x flat grey primer), plus a light wetsand (P1000) between each second coat to finally get a smooth finish across the plugs. I think i ended up with 6 coats on it prior to going back to colour.
