Product Information

Let’s get onto the finishes you can put on plywood to transform it into an elegant and fashionable feature in your home. Where a potential cause of bleeding, e.g. a wallcovering or bituminous coating, can be removed before painting, it is advisable to do so. This will not be practicable if the source It can be the right choice for trim and molding and may work for smaller furniture pieces, like end tables. The satin finish tends to be more affordable because it requires less effort to make the finishing and has a thinner texture. Usually, the satin finish is used for affordable and entry-level guitars. Gloss Guitars Will you be able to tell the difference? Maybe not, but when you brush on to wood or metal it will produce a high gloss sheen that is hard to resist, especially when coupled with a suitable primer or undercoat. If All White isn’t the white you want you can try other whites from their range, but you will have to pay handsomely for the pleasure

White paint is white paint isn’t it? No is the answer, there are very subtle shades of white but this interior water-based, eco-friendly, low odour gloss paint is simply white. This offering from Farrow & Ball contains no other pigments except white. It doesn’t contain any small hints of blue you often find in brilliant whites. Generally, furniture wax isn’t used to achieve a high-gloss finish. Though it can be buffed and polished to provide a level of sheen, if you’re looking for a noticeably glossy look, you’re better off with a different gloss finish product in nearly all cases. The Benefits of a Gloss FinishWipe excess paint off the plywood. Use a lean cloth to wipe excess paint off the plywood surface. This will thin out the coat of paint and allow the wood grain to show through.

Also called a clear coat, clear paints are usually placed over traditional colored paint. It can offer the colored surface a degree of protection, reducing the odds that the coloring will wear away over time, become damaged, or stains. Microcrystalline Wax is ideal for delicate artefacts due to its pH neutral and acid-free qualities. The wax stays clear and forms a hard layer when applied that, once buffed, gives a gentle sheen and will repel moisture on furniture. Its properties also help prevent oxidation of metal surfaces. Axminster Microcrystalline Waxes offer a versatile finish However, if you don’t want to paint your MDF there are a few alternatives to primer/sealer. Effectively, they do the same job - seal the MDF - but in different ways. If you like the natural look of MDF and want to add some protection you can use a clear varnish - choose matt or gloss - to keep your MDF looking like new. An oil-based varnish is the best choice for this. You apply in much the same way as primer/sealer/paint, with a brush or roller.Apply the first layer using a 1200-1500grit paper (I like the sponge) to create a sort of slurry of oil and fine dust. This will help fill and seal the pores a bit better. Do wipe off the residue, you do not want it to dry on top. Polyurethane is applied to floors to give them a hard wearing and tough topcoat, as well as to furniture to give it a lustrous, shiny finish. Sanding Tip: To raise the grain, run a damp rag over the surface. By the time it dries (should be a few minutes) the grain will rise and your guitar will become a little fuzzy. Sanding it with the same grit as your last, or one higher will remove it. This is done to avoid this happening after the first coat of stain/color/varnish, especially if these are water-based. Staining your guitar Once the wood grain filler has dried, sand the plywood down with the 220-grit sandpaper. The surface is now ready for the all-important primer.

Depending on the type of stain/ dye or colors you are using, you may want to coat it with a sealer. Sealers will prevent the topcoat from damaging and give it better stability. An added bonus to sealers is that they are very ‘sandable’ and will also give a good base for the topcoats. If you are not sure, do a test of your stain/ dye with the clear coat on a scrap piece. Sealers are usually not necessary with oil-based paint and most spray cans. Finishing your guitar with oil You will need to add at least one coat of undercoat. Use a two-to-three-inch brush to apply and leave to dry as per the manufacturer's instructions. Plywood can be finished to a high gloss, polished look, which has excellent visual appeal, and waterproofs the plywood for use as tabletops or kitchen countertops. The gloss guitars are convenient to clean as you can use the soft cloth and cleaning wax – it helps clear the stains and maintain the gloss/shine of the finishing. Although mainly visible in high gloss finishes, brushmarks are usually in the undercoat or primer and may not be seen until the gloss finish is applied when it is too late for an easy remedy.Put your can in hot water for a few minutes. The warm paint will flow more evenly and give smaller drops. Rub down and get the surface as smooth as possible. Clean with diluted white spirit or similar to remove any grease or dust, leave to dry and give one last rub down. If adding a primer or undercoat do a gentle rub down with a fine grade sandpaper when dry. Do the same between gloss coats. This makes sure you are painting onto a smooth surface. Finishing your guitar or guitar kit can be a lot of fun and is an opportunity for a lot of creativity and ways to make it unique. Professional-looking finish can be achieved with simpler tools, but the trade off will be a lot more work. If this is something you think you will enjoy, you can certainly achieve beauty. If you prefer a simpler choice, there are wonderful solutions that will require much less time and effort. Either, enjoy it.
