Did some more work on this Bandsman today and I am reporting back about the Aquacoat clear grain filler I used. It is expensive but it goes a long way, I think it’s an amazing product. I just scraped ...

About 3 coats are needed apparently and 24hrs in between coats. @boo Yeah those are the drawbacks to using paint however I’m willing to bet that you could speed up the drying time with a hair dryer ...

Are we talking baby bath hot or cup of tea hot @russ Somewhere in between. The can will cool the water so it needs to be fairly warm but if it’s too hot the can might blow up. 🥵🤯 Gold...

@koendb The logos look great....I’ve been meaning to do mine (my avatar) but the to do list of other things has always got in the way..I’m just lazy I guess. It does finish your guitars off..

Your decal looks great. I think I've been on the same journey as you. Whilst I can print my own water slide transfers in black which works well for light coloured headstocks I had to resort to buying ...

I did try different colours on the waterslide but the dark wood background just showed through them Yeah that is a pitty with these decals, lighter colors or shades translates in more or less translu...
