Re: [Harp-L] tweed cover protector/sealant



Hi Tom,

I used a shellac on my Bassman and it came out great.  Most paint stores should sell it... The one I used was Zinnser Bullseye, some kind of amber or honey color.  Sadly, I no longer have the can so I can't read you the exact color.

I've been told that in "the old days", amp builders used nitrocellulose lacquer and not shellac; when I looked into this years ago it seemed like it would be a pain in the neck to do.   So I went with the shellac and have been reallyt happy with how it came out.

Bill

Hi
been wandering if anyone knows if you can seal and treat tweed on Fenders. I notice some bassmans have a tweed that has been treated with something. Has anyone ever done this and is it straightforward? 
Cheers fellow harpers
