I put the final color coat on the guitar today. The color coat is Createx Candy2o Grabber Orange 4654. This is a clear orange color that lets you see through to the metallic color underneath. The more you put on, the more orange it gets.

I’m very happy with the results! I’ve never sprayed a candy color like this on something that I care about.

Here is a video of it outside so you can see the color better.

After some thought, I don’t really like the color. It looks cool outside and in bright light. Inside and in lower light, it looks way too dark (like brown or copper). I’m going to repaint it using a much lighter metallic base coat.

Stay tuned..
