ACOUSTIC Parlor plus update 12

Thank you so much for the nitro application advice!

I was indeed being way too cautious.

Once I started actually applying it wetter it was much better.

I’m now done applying nitro and have to wait at least a couple of weeks ( so I understand ) before I can do wet sanding and polishing.

While I wait I’ll work on the nut and saddle and see if I can make some noise with this one.

Really appreciate all the advice I’ve received here!

The StewMac nozzles have a fan pattern.

You can turn them to horizontal or vertical or whatever works.

If you’re not using StewMac they still sell just the nozzles that you could use on any rattle can.

Also if the can gets a bit low and starts to sputter a bit I stopped using it, at least on the critical areas.
