Perfect! that would be for a shell pink nitro finish to complete my vintage color collection ( this guitar and my modded Ibanez RG420 in Surf Green

@koendb Oooooooooo........ Nice Ibanez, I love Ibanez, one of my favourite guitar manufacturers. I have four myself.

First couple of clear coats today! It is getting warmer everyday, and it is noticeable.. lots more bugs and little flies in the air.
This is the first time i had to remove a couple of those. A few more coats tomorrow and thursday and then trying to resist the temptation to even look at it for the next coming 2 weeks 🙂

I could not resist having a sneak peak how it would look in the end 😊

@koendb Yeah that’s it, resist the temptation, it’s all about self discipline. And yeah, those little flying beasties can be a pain. It’s looking good though, well done. 👍

Final coat went on today! Did manage to catch some dust in the last coats, so I will need to sand those out a bit I think. I got plenty, so hopefully I can leave it at that now and come back to it in 2 weeks
