Preperation for Paint

     Now that mostly everything is cut and shaped it requires one last look over. I recommend fitting all the parts. I fitted the pickups one last time and saw that it was too tight. I spent some time to sand out the hole to make it snug. To prepare for paint I sanded with 600 grit sand paper and made it buttery smooth. Then I got a can of Sanding Sealer which is used to fill in all the pores from the wood to make an even surface. The process of applying and sanding should be done 3 or 4 times or until smooth. About a minute before the paint or stain is applied you should take a microfiber cloth and wipe the surface from any dust or particles that could obstruct your paint job.
