| Clear Coating Cab?? |
| (1/2) > >> |
| clanggedin:
I just finished restoring a Donkey Kong Jr. Cab and I'm not sure if I should clear coat the sideart and the paint for protection. I'm going to sell this cab, so should I leave it be as it is or should I clear coat it so the sideart won't fade and make it more difficult to scratch the paint? If I should clear coat it what type of coating would I use?? Here's a pic of the finished cab. I'll be posting before and after pics to the projects page tonight or tomorrow. |

That is a gorgeous cab. I would give the seller the option. If you're selling it, your main concern is the condition at the time of sale, not the condition 5 years from now. The buyer could be super anal and keep it like that indefinitely. Then again, it could go someplace that floods in a year and it's gone. |

Nice work! If your purpose in restoring it is/was to sell it, I would base my clear coat decision on whether you expect it to sell for more by doing so. Are you going to be able to command a higher price and will someone pay the higher price for the add'l expense you will incur? If its pristine at the moment and ready for sale, I would probably make the decision not to add clear coat expenese....but I have no experience in restoring cabs for purposes of resell. Best of luck! |
