I would LOVE a video tutorial of a properly sprayed finish. I know this is a sticky one since each finish is different, but even something showing your speed and motion would be great. I haven't been able to find any instructional DVD's on this.

If you can hang in there a bit longer I have one coming up on how to do a sunburst finish on an electric guitar. It covers the spraying of the clearcoat as well.

I would love a video demonstrating the use of a turbine and one of the high tech water-based finishes. Would anyone be planning that?

I will certainly be looking for your vid, Robbie.

Thanks

Benedetto shows how he sprays his archtops with nitro at the end of his archtop builiding videos. He does a sunburst and a natural. He shows spraying, sanding, polishing etc.
