My nitrocellulose cans have arrived, I orderd it from here, I got a can of white blonde and a can of tinted gloss. The guy, Steve, has been a great help, I emailed him a few questions before I knew he sold spray paint and he replied with some great advice, he's got a load of experience so Im gonna follow what he said, infact I think I already posted earlier with a link to his page where he built a tele from kit.
Ive never spray painted owt before so Im a bit nervous of doing it. Im gonna do the neck first with the tinted gloss (to give it a vintage look), I still need to fine sand the headstock that I cut and then possibly sand the neck to create a 'key' for the lacquer to stick to.
Still dont know where Im gonna do it like, the only place I can is outside then bring it indoors.
The great thing with nitrocellulose is that if you mess up you can easily strip off the finish and start again - lets hope I dont have to.
