Neck re-fin

[radansey]

Now that I have completed the re-fin on my Spector body, I am looking at the neck. There a few dings and marks on the back of the neck - which appears to be lacquered.

Would it be possible to sand these out (possibly back to the wood) then treat with Danish Oil, but leave the existing finish on the volute and headstock. I was thinking of a few coats of Danish and then beeswax the whole neck.

Is this viable??

TIA

No reason why not. You might have to adjust the truss rod a bit after though.

For what reason? I'm not intending removing that much wood from the neck, just a slight sand to remove the 'dings'. Maybe I could use the damp-cloth and iron method - but would this have a detrimental effect upon the neck stability??
