    I have thought about it, and I can't justify the headache of pulling and redoing the binding. I am also going to try sanding though the veneer completely (it won't be that hard) and staining the basswood. Just need to be thorough and get ALL the glue off.

    Hey Pabs, what a bummer.
    Everyone here has mentioned most options however I think yours of sanding through to the Basswood underneath might be best if you want to show off any grain at all. Stan mentioned some auto paints and the metallic Ford colour that was on XR5 Focus a few years ago looks great but was a special paint that cost a fortune, check it out at http://www.nissansilvia.com/forums/i...owtopic=427187
    There was also another orange on XR6 I think they called Octane but it looked more solid than metallic.
    Good luck with trying to save it from here.
