Your guys opinion?

Post by cbass »

What do you tink about this finish?It was buffed out quickly just to get a pic.I think I could go a little farther.

Wich one do you like better.The Satin or gloss

Its ok to be critical

I like them both but probably going with gloss because bumped things can be repolished but resatining is not something you can just do.

Nice work, buddy.

resatin - v; the act of satining again

My flannel shirt polished my guitar so much it required resatining.

I'm thinking about making some more up to sell.I wonder if folks would be willing to pay for a buffed finish.

Or if a finish like this is good enough?

Sure but ANY defect shows up like monsters in high gloss.
It just screams "high quality" to me.
