I sprayed a whole can of Clear Gloss and then left it to harden. The gloss top coat is shiny right out of the can You can see I have a bit of roughness to the finish at this point, caused by spraying in non-ideal conditions (a strong breeze!) I didn’t sand though as the clear gloss coats would smooth everything out. If I had wanted a darker red, I could have sprayed more coats. Spraying the red, first coat very lightĪ whole can of Clear Red has been applied. The first few passes of red were applied very light to avoid disturbing the metallic. Once the metallic layer was done it was time to start applying the Clear Red. First pass of gold lacquer over the primer Gold lacquer layer is done Here’s the first coat which you can see is quite transparent but it soon builds. I could have used a different gold or Inca Silver. Once the primer was on I sanded it smooth ready for the gold layer. The first step is to spray a coat of white primer to give an even base for the metallic layer.
You can use a prepped body in sanding sealer of course! I think this could be for one of two reasons: firstly Fender may have had a special order for a custom colour and not had any bare bodies so used a stock sunburst body or secondly they may have just been sunbursts gone wrong that were sprayed over to hide a mistake. This is actually something that Fender often did as it’s not unusual to find a sunburst under a custom colour. I’m using the Guitarbuild body that I previously sprayed with a 2-tone sunburst. I have itemised the process in my Lacquer FAQs. Candy Apple Red is based on the old custom car technique of spraying clear lacquer over a metallic base coat, and was Fenders only truly “custom” colour, all the others being repurposed car finishes. It is not the language of painters but the language of nature which one should listen to, the feeling for the things themselves, for reality, is more important than the feeling for pictures. If he did, he would cease to be an artist. No great artist ever sees things as they really are.
