Thanks! It's actually the same (all pale gold nitro from the same company) so it might be more of a lighting issue, but I did use two different rattle cans of it. I would love for it to look more two toned like the photo though haha.
I have two more coats of clear to go. Pretty excited! That said - my Stewart McDonald spray kit tells me that after ten coats, I should "dry sand" before applying the two final coats. My question, if anyone knows, is: what is that?
From a video I found, it seems that it is just taking 800 grit sanding paper and *gently* sanding the entire body (and neck in my case?) while constantly wiping your paper/guitar to clear dust until it looks smooth and matte.
Is that accurate? Does anyone here skip this step?
I believe my remaining steps would be "level sanding" with dry paper, wiping off, applying two more coats of clear, and then waiting for the 10-14 days to cure. Any insight would be appreciated!
