I got materials and the gun from Bob Marinelli at Pianotek a couple of summers ago. He was helpful and took time to answer a lot of my questions - he does, or has done a lot of spraywork. But, I was a complete newbie to refinishing and to handling a spray rig so I had a lot of problems. I did two grands. The first one turned out with a lot of orange peel and I still need to do a lot of rubbing out. My second effort is fairly decent, but I still feel that the final surface isn't polished enough. I have too many alergys to deal with regular lacquers to any degree. The waterbased finishes are about all I can handle. I would like to know about others using these products and any tips they might have. Bill Darst Music Dept UC Santa Barbara
