Step Twenty Three-Finishing

You will want to apply a top coat of finish to the instrument to protect the

bare wood from dirt and oils. There are countless finishing products to use

and will post on our website forum, feedback from those that have already

built kits. Many builders use nitro-cellulose lacquer but there are many

precautions needed to use this product. There are many water-borne products

available that are less volatile and less hazardous. Also, there are some nice

hand rubbed oil finishes that require much more work but with spectacular

results. We suggest several tests on scrap woods to find the perfect finish

before working directly on your new instrument.

We hope that you have enjoyed the process and have an instrument that you

will show to others. Hopefully, you or someone you have made this for will

begin to play this with the appreciation of all your time and efforts.

Thanks again for purchasing a kit from US Guitar Kits, Inc.

We would love to see a picture of your finished guitar.
