I might actually take you up on that, although I’m contiplating doing a clear with some white mixed in.Molly wrote:codedog wrote:Where did you get the nitro aerosol from, Molly?It's from the Spray Store which has relocated to Sockburn area. Had two cans of Olympic White mixed (well, I matched it to a swatch they had called something else). Have only used one can and that included throwing away the first attempt as it was too thick.Reg18 wrote:The colour is great, I’m considering doing my Tele the same trans white over the summer.
Is it a nitro can of lacquer with a little bit of white mixed in, or just a very thin coat of white?
Would've been much easier if it was clear with a little white mixed in I guess though the final finish might've been thicker. This is a very thin finish. Just two passes with the first flatted back.
Buying one can is expensive. Buying two isn't as bad as the second is cheaper and the guy gave me the trade price. Think it was about $70 for the two. If you want the other Reg you can have it for $30?
I’ll do a bit more research on how to do trans finishes but until then can you hold the nitro can for me (figuratively)
