TomJ819 Posted May 19, 2011 Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 Hi, I'm currently building a precision style bass and the only thing I'm not confident with is the spraying... I don't want to f*ck it up! Does anyone know of anywhere/anyone in Aberdeen that would potentially offer this service?ThanksTom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thecorporal Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 I've had a guitar sprayed in a car paint shop. The finish is usually good, but you have to sand your body to be perfectly smooth. I'd also recommend priming and filling in the woodgrain. If you want something a bit out of the ordinary you could try simscustom.com they are expensive I know, however the work is usually top notch.

Guest droid Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 yeh get a body shop and 'dip-it' don't spray it....nice clean finish as above though do all your own prep first...Never heard of dip painting a guitar, spraying is good if it's done in a clean enviroment. You also get brush/roll on paints too,which require an element of flattening and polishing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
