I went and did a little bit of research and ended up getting some Dupli-color - acrylic based enamel. I now have two cans of primer ready to go.
Seeing as it's been pretty cold here, I haven't been game to try spraying the body yet, but there appears to be a day coming up that provides for some more ideal conditions for spraying. Planning on spraying the first coat of primer and then leaving the body for a few days before sanding it back and going again, seeing as it's been cold here.
I've made a small jig to attach the body to so that I can hang it in the carport so I can spray it - I just have to mask off the cavities for the pick ups, as well as the control cavity.
Before I do this, I wanted to ask if I need to drill the holes on the body for the neck any bigger first? They seem a bit tight for the screws that I have for the neck.
Also, I'm guessing I should be drilling the holes for the bridge now, right? If that's the case, I just have to plug those holes with match sticks or similar so paint doesn't get into them, which shouldn't be too much hassle.
