| Is it possible to shellac over paint? |
| (1/1) |
| M.Lanza:
I'm working on a megatouch right now and am almost finished with it. One of the mdf sides is busted and I thought about buying a new set, but it doesent seem too bad, so I may try to repair it with bondo. If I can repair it, it will need to be refinished, but i'm looking for somthing tough that wont chip or scratch and wont peel off if I replace the side decals when I choose to upgrade the machine. I'm thinking that shellac or a thick polyurathane coat would work well, but I don't know if I can apply this stuff over paint without ruining it. The directions on the can don't say anything about it and I don't mind testing it out before hand, but I was wondering if anyone else has tried this before and had good results. |

shellac, definitely not. this is a very old way of old painting wood. you get the shellac chips, mix it with methylated spirits and paint it on. i doubt it would even stick to modern paint... |
