As a follow-up to my loser thread, I wanted to post the info I received from Erick Coleman over at StewMac in regards to drop filling the ColorTone brushing varnish in hopes that it may help someone elso down the road. I also wanted to add this as a separate thread so it would be easier to find when it makes it's way to the archive. FROM STEWMAC: Drop filling the dents is likely the best repair method. Clean the instrument thoroughly with diluted denatured alcohol to remove any residual polish or contaminates that could cause adhesion issues. Drop-fill the areas slightly higher than the surrounding finish. Once cured, you can level the fills to your surrounding finish and buff to a high gloss. Our #3705 Micro Mesh pads work great for buffing to a mirror finish. www.stewmac.com/item/3705 You should be able to sand the scratches out depending on the depth. It may be necessary to fill as you did the dents. |
