I would like to french polish without using masking tape on the bridge and fretbaord areas.
So, If I pore fill using Z-poxy, french polish, scrape the bridge foot print and fingerboard area, then glue the parts on using Titebond Original, will there be an adhesion problem?

Thanks,
Ron

As long as you scrape all the finish off, you're good to go.
Unless you are using a hardwood (open pored) top, you wouldn't want to epoxy fill it anyway.

I'd think you'd only use pore fill around rosette and purflings if anywhere on a top.

Hi Daniel and Nickton,
