Finish question for Ken Smith

[pathdoc2]

This is a question regarding a project bass I'm building. Its not an acoustic, its a standard small bodied electric but I know KS visits this area of talkbass more than the electric side. So here's my question. I'm looking for a durable satin finish for my project bass. Ken I know you use a special forumula for your production bases. I'm not asking for that but could you suggest an easy to apply satin finish? I've used Stew-Mac nitrocellulose on a few projects before but I find it chips way too easily.

Thanks in advance. BTW, I've owned several of your basses and love them.

Please delete this from here and put it in the Luthier section of BG. Send me an email with a Link and I will respond or just email me. This is not a DB topic and will get moved anyway.
