Additional product information
Northwest Guitars Professional Nitrocellulose Guitar Paints are crafted for luthiers, restorers, and hobbyists seeking authentic finishes. Used on early Fender and Gibson guitars, this premium formula delivers vintage tones and aesthetics. Over time, it develops a natural patina with sought-after checking and cracking effects, capturing the character of classic instruments.
With colours inspired by legendary models like Butterscotch Blonde, Lake Placid Blue, and Pelham Blue, this paint allows you to recreate iconic finishes or craft unique designs. Its thin, resonant finish enhances tone and appearance, perfect for vintage restorations or custom builds.
Each tin contains 250ml of undiluted nitrocellulose which, when thinned 1:1 with a high quality anti-bloom thinner, will produce enough paint to complete 2-3 solid body guitars.
Once dried, the finish can be polished and buffed to a glossy shine, showcasing your instrument’s beauty.
Northwest Guitars Nitrocellulose Paints combine durability, authenticity, and exceptional results for guitar finishing projects.
