    Thanks Phrozin! Great tip. I'm doing a silver black burst. I'm thinking a black neck and headstock as well. Finally got to lay down my first colour coats today. Bit excited!

    This is shaping up to be another 40 epic. Love the silver coat.

    This is looking awesome Mrs Andy40!!
    One thing I might suggest, is to be careful around the edges of your cavities. I masked my cavities exactly that way when I resprayed my Carsonstein and I got some chips around the edges.
    It was suggested to allow the paint to go over the edges slightly to minimise the chance of chips. Perhaps when you do the clear coats, you re-mask before spraying.

    Thanks for the tip Zandit75 I will definitely take that up!

    It's a bit gratuitous but the sun was shining just right after a few more colour coats this afternoon.
