JPJ Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 I think I may have hit on a problem with my latest self-build. I intended spraying the back and sides of the body using a black cellulose paint and then doing the maple top using a combination of stain and tinted nitro-cellulose lacquer. However, I've just remembered that the two are not really compatible are they? I'm sure I've read somewhere that you can spray one over the other but I can't remember which way round is ok and which way is a non-starter. So is it cellulose over nitrocellulose or the other way?

FinnDave Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 I might be displaying the depth of my ignorance here, but I was under the impression that cellulose and nitro cellulose are alternative names for the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPJ Posted August 29, 2014 Author Share Posted August 29, 2014 Cheers for that, turns out your correct I emailed Rothko and Frost this morning via their website and received a reply in 10 minutes confirming that all is ok in terms of shooting nitrocellulose over cellulose. After sending my question, I also found some really useful information on their website regarding spraying, finishing and polishing here [url="http://www.rothkoandfrost.com/wood-finishes/"]http://www.rothkoandfrost.com/wood-finishes/[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
