Hi,
I've read almost everything I could, and definitely there seems to be various ways to do a DYI finish and I am not sure which way to go. I'm planning to work on a basswood body, and use water based acrylic for the color. I'm not sure how to do that. From what I've read first thing is using a grain filler and sanding. Next step before applying the acrylic water based is what I am not sure. Should I use a sealer ? primer ? From there I would apply the acrylic water based paint. And I've seen that then applying truoil, and then some wax for polishing ends up looking good.
Before applying the acrylic water based paint, is applying a sealer, primer or something recommended ?
Thanks.
