Lord Sausage Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 I'm flirting with the idea of swirl painting a guitar, Borax method. Anyone ever done this? i think i get the general gist of it. Anyone know if you can use nitro paints underneath, or does it have to be plasti-kote paint?

gjones Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 You'd be better off asking Damien Hirst he's the expert [url="http://www.damienhirst.com/projects/2011/flea-bass"]http://www.damienhirst.com/projects/2011/flea-bass[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NancyJohnson Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 I did one a while ago on a six string Strat body for a lark - I don't have the body any more so no pics. We just followed a You Tube video...there's plenty out there. Just make sure the body is primed to your desired base colour and rubbed down so the paint will adhere. Dustbin of water, dunk in guitar body, add the paints (we used little pots of model paint), mix lightly, pull out body slowly. Allow to dry somewhere. It was an OK project...a bit of Sunday fun.
