Re: Time For Me To Get Off My Ass!! Tung Oil? Tru Oil?

Man I love that blue, the flame is beautiful..... It was worth getting off yo ass for!

Now that the purple one is more of a magenta, I'm leaning away from gold, and back toward black hardware/pickups, with white rings. Chrome top to bottom on the blue one, IMO. It's not my guitar though.....just envisioning it based on your pics.

It's getting there. It looks way better in person.

I have a good idea for the final coats. When i spray guitars with acrylic i always finish with a thinned down version of the clear. I thought why not do the same with the oil by adding in some mineral spirits.

I'm doing a guitar at the moment jolly so if it works i will let you know.

I read on Birchwood-Casey's website where it said it was fine to do that. It just takes a little longer to dry.

I tell ya what.......just steel wooled it down, and threw coat #6 or whatever on it.

Mo fo looks badass already here in person.

Here's some pics with the flash off off my cell phone, and with it on.....in that order.

The way it looks to me at the moment is like the first pic.

I don't know how right or wrong what I'm doing on the videos is, but I'm just going to keep on doing it, because I like the results.

The results look fantastic.
