Good tutorial for prepping your old guitar: • How To Paint Your Guit...
In this tutorial I will be showing you guys how I turned a plain wooden guitar base stock into a masterpiece. I start with sealing and preparing the wood with three coats of gesso, sanding between each coat. I then draw up my design with pencil on the guitar and show you how I layer acrylic paint to paint a realistic skull-themed artwork. I finish the back of the guitar by spraying it with Belton Molotow Premium spray paint. I seal the artwork with multiple coats of Rust-Oleum 2x Ultra Cover Clear.

Love the fact that you talked about clear coating in depth. This has caught me out before in the past too. Never rush the final steps.

great work as usual. I have found that in my artwork if i sand the clear in between coats, the finish turns out amazing , specially after you get a good buff in the end. Just a tip. really love the work Fieldey

Looks great!! But if you would water sand with 3000 grit it would take the texture from the brush strokes away and make tge surface smooth. Just some friendly advice, I promise I am only trying to help, you do an amazing job!!

I like this two part clear coat called 2k clear. It has a hardener in it like a spray gun mix, so you can go heavy with like 3 coats. With this artwork with paint strokes. I would spray 4 coats, let it fully cure a couple days. Then scuff the clear with a scotch brite pad, do 3-4 more coats, level sand with 600 gritt. and work up the sand paper grits to 3000. Get heavy cut auto compound, then do a regular cut compound. Then do a polish. Great work tho. That design is awesome

You're right about clear coat curing - I just had one burn through during buffing because the underlying coats weren't properly cured. And when the art is custom, that is a serious setback. Tonight I have to strip the entire body, re-sand, Gesso again, sand again and then paint the entire piece again. But the good news is that I get to fix issues with the rendering of the art that I didn't like, so it has some plusses. But yes, I'm going back to a day of curing for each clear coat. Fantastic video!

Who knows maybe one day i can have someone paint a guitar for me.

Hi Fieldey.. I like your art work.. I was especially interested in the guitar art. I have had this idea to do an acrylic pour on a guitar... I d9nt really know anything about that kind of thing, so I have been watching KZbin videos to try and get some direction... from best type of paint to use to best clear coat that preferably dries really hard. I would appreciate any tips you are able to afford me. Thank you in advance, and keep making great videos 😊

Sorry for the late reply! I'd do a bit of research and use what you're comfortable painting with. Acrylic is the best for this style of art, but isn't necessarily the most resilient.
