    Ok to Spraypaint Bridge?

    Thanks guys. I probably should have included the fact that the bridge is black in my original post. I actually ended up buying this product: Invalid Link Removed ...hopefully that'll work ok. It may only be for wood, but thought it was worth a shot. If it doesn't stick, I'll check out...

    Ok to Spraypaint Bridge?

    I'm restoring an old Spector bass and can't seem to find a replacement bridge on the internet. This bridge is very faded, and I was wondering if spray painting it would be acceptable. If so, any recommendations on type of paint to use?:eyebrow: Thanks. Ben
