Clear Finish

[a_novice]

Not sure on the grain yet, just ordered last night :-)

So you would spray the black candy over a solid grey? or over a grey primer?

The IC-1 doesn't have a binding so phew! It was time consuming (but worth it) when i did that on my PBG Tele.

I don't have a spray gun or air brush so looking at how to do a thin burst with spray cans (not the wisest choice but....)

Um... no.... if the body has nice grain then a coat of clear sealer over the timber, then sand smooth, thblack candy over the sealer. primer or grey paint will just hide th grain. Black candy *instead* of grey primer/paint will still give you a grey unless you put too many coats on, but show off the grain if it has a nice flame to the top , it would be a shame to completely hide it. Think of it as a tint . or you could use a grey stain if you can find it. If the grain turns out to be boring then go with primer /paint. As for the burst, you can do it with a rattle can.... the big manufacturers use a full sized gun to do bursts, I'm more inclined to use an air brush, but if you don't have that as an option, the can will do.
