Members jdc5294 Posted January 30, 2013 Members Share Posted January 30, 2013 I have a no finish telecaster body coming from Warmoth, and I want to paint it like this: So I ordered some 1" circle labels and they just came and while I predicted this was going to be an issue, nevertheless it's still a problem. While sticking them on my Strat body to see how they did around and in curves: So my plan was to spray paint white, put the labels on, and spray paint blue afterwards. Obviously this wouldn't work with these labels, so I'm asking if anyone has any ideas about how to pull this off. I also think the wrinkling problem will be worse with a Tele body since the roundover is a lot smaller. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bubbluz Posted January 31, 2013 Members Share Posted January 31, 2013 To make these work, you will have to make relief cuts or cut the stickers in half or quarters to follow the curves/edges . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jdc5294 Posted January 31, 2013 Author Members Share Posted January 31, 2013 I'm not necessarily looking for the labels to work, I'm looking for any idea that would allow me to do this paint job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members D Carroll Posted January 31, 2013 Members Share Posted January 31, 2013 have you ever painted anything before? if so, think about using a circular sponge, and fill in by hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
