Today I have given the body a gentle sand with 2000 g, then polished with Kustom Creations Kustom Grit step 1 (cutting compound), and step 2 using a Random Orbital Polisher and micro-fibre pads, then applied Maguire’s Ultimate Compound and then Scratch X with the Polisher and micro-fibre cloth.
Very happy with the shine. Still, some room for improvement in the sanding and sanding sealer steps!

The little voices in my head keep telling me "build more guitars"
Looks great! I always appreciate reading/seeing the products that are used in in getting the finish. Gives a better sense of how the outcome might be replicated... And that would be a worthy goal. Looks great!
