Review: Dartford's Gloss Clear Nitrocellulose Guitar Lacquer spray - I used this for spraying the back of a Strat neck. This was a cellulose lacquer over the factory polyester finish. Without too much preparation, I achieved a high gloss finish...... DO NOT think you can do it, unless you know you can...... If you know how to use a spray gun, you should be able to achieve a good finish with this Dartford lacquer. All their paints are high quality. [PREPARATION is important]
Review: Brilliant stuff. - What an amazing invention. They put the liquid into a handy round tin and attach a little button on top that you press to get the liquid out. But be careful because it comes out of a tiny hole in a really fine spray and if you don't aim it carefully it will just go everywhere!
