How To Paint A Guitar: 5150 Guitar Project Day 7

Here are some pictures of the white coat after it was finished. Everything is going pretty well so far and the white is looking great. This color by itself looks really good. I can’t wait to see it with the red and black.

At this point I have applied about 3-4 coats of white over the primer. I plan to let this dry for a couple of days before attempting to stripe it with the tape. Overall the paint is drying quickly and as I mentioned before I haven’t seen a paint run yet. That alone is a huge improvement over the other types of paint from the test run. I’m still leaning toward not wet sanding between colors and just waiting until the end to smooth everything out. I’m not sure if that will turn out to be the best decision or not, but at this point there isn’t a whole lot of texture to it. Next time I should have it striped and ready for the fiesta red.
