This stuff works wonders.
And it's water based.
If the finish is not caked on.
It won't take long.
If it is, you may need more then one application.

I picked up the Peavey Foundation last night. Chuck gave it a thumbs up from a player perspective; however, seeing it in the daylight leaves a lot to be desired. The neck is great, but the body has a lot of scratches and chips.

So, I think this will be my first refinishing project. It's not worth spending money to send it to a pro, so I am going to give it a try myself. Step one will be to strip off the black poly. Any suggestions on the best way (read easy way) to do that? I do have a heat gun if that and a scraper is the way to go. Not sure paint strippers work great on poly.

All you mugs out there.
Treat the moms right today.
Give them roses and kisses and wish them a Happy Mother's Day.


Mom and I on Friday, she's 92 and still really doing quite well.

I read the review on this one and it brought to mind a recent(8-900 pages back)post that stated that Pelham Blue as it ages-amber-gets green-er[blue + yellow=green-ish]. So if an Inverness Green ages/ambers, does it become chartreuse?

Judging by your dress prints, you're both a couple of inner exotic animals! ;) :) :thumbsup: She looks amazing for 92 - good genes! What's your mom's name?
