BassBus Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 Can anyone recommend the best high gloss polyester lacquer to repair chips in the finish of a bass and where would be best to buy small quantities. Thanks for any help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassBus Posted April 26, 2019 Author Share Posted April 26, 2019 (edited) Is that really nail varnish? It's a much smaller patch of clear lacquer I have to replace but essentially the same job. Nice job. Edited April 26, 2019 by BassBus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I did it every day I was actually very capable...now I do it once in a blue moon I have to have everything just so. The Washburn was a labour of love - bought from America, and eventually sold back to a guy who runs an unofficial “museum”. He enjoyed it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
