A few months ago I painted my Stratocaster kit bright red using rattle cans. It took a lot of paint and a lot of lacquer and a long time to dry. When I sanded the finish I wasn't really all that happy with it so I decided to repaint using nitrocellulose lacquers. Tonight I started the wet sanding and polishing process.
I started with 600 wet and dry sand paper, then moved to 1200 and then 1500 before using abrasive polishing compounds gradually working through 3 different compounds and then a bit of car polish!
There is still a long way to go but early indications are that this is going to shine beautifully.
