    Pity you had to hit the sander - crackle can look interesting (but I'm not game to give it a go myself!...)

    that's actually pretty rad... but unfortunately does not fall within my design brief. Anything less and I wouldn't be able to sleep at night... I've got some bad OCD unfortunately haha.

    Mick if humidity is a problem for you in your area you need to purchase an infrared heater to fast dry acrylic clears. Soon as each coat goes on heat it up for 15 - 20 mins.

    Thanks for all the suggestions guys.

    I bit the bullet hard and stripped/sanded the body back to raw timber.

    good news is.... I've got some grey primer on it! haha

    Hey Mick, I'm doing a satin black LP body - how are you keeping the minor blemishes off? You can't polish them out or it's not a satin finish anymore...
