I think it looks good, no matter what people in the comments are saying. I like the matching pickguard etc. I bet w/ the electronics and hardware and clear coat probably looks great.

I'm currently trying to swirl a guitar with the pickguard myself. How can you assure to remove the pickguard after the swirl safely? I imagine it will stick to the body due to the paint. Any help here?

This is the only one I ever did with the puckguard. I feel like we just removed the pick guard fairly quickly once dry. You could also use an Xacto knife or razor blade around the edges before the paint sets hard. Be sure to tape off any electronics and pickup cavities before you dip. Good luck!

What did you use as primer for the paint to stick to the plastic parts?

Bulldog adhesion promoter. It's good stuff. Usually can find it at auto parts stores.

Lovely swirl! :) Trying one out myself atm. Just wondering, did you have to add thinner to the paints? And also, how long after the borax went in did you guys began adding the paint?

So... we used paints I've never seen anyone use. We used Rustoleum in quart cans. We mixed the colors in restaurant condiment style plastic bottles. Getting the right consistency is hard. You just have to add enough acetone until you get it right. There was no longer waiting on the Borax. Add it, stir the water and maybe wait a few minutes for any larger borax particles to sink to the bottom. You have to be sure to get plenty of paint floated on top and you need to dip pretty quickly. If not, the paint will start to congeal within minutes and become unusable.

Good afternoon, I need help, I'm trying to make a swirl or also known as marbeling, I've made great advances, I'm a luthier I would like to paint my guitars by immersion in water, I'll report my advances to simplify 1-) water density: I have already achieved a good density with the following products: CMC, carrageenan and emulsifier (nestle) 2: Paints: I managed to make the paints float and make drawings under these solutions already listed in the previous item, I have already used the following paints, food dyes, water-based paints, acrylic paints and special paints from the pebeo brand made for marbling 3-) I can transfer my drawings perfectly to plain paper or potassium sulfate treated paper, 4-) I need to make this happen on guitars that I have to apply a sealant base, I was told to use the white spray from the brand rust oleum ultracover 2x, I apply it on the wood, however unfortunately, every time I do the immersion in any of the paints the drawings are destroyed and run down the body of the guitar, they just don't stick. Please, I need to know which product to apply under the wood after I have applied the rust oleum base so that the designs remain on the guitar.

There's a lot going on here in what you said that I don't fully understand. I think it would be easiest to fully understand the process I used: Water - add 20 Mule Team Borax laundry conditioner - Was probably something like 1/2 to 1 cup US Paint - used Rustoluem that came in quart cans from Home Depot Used same paint for base coat (sprayed with air compressor) and dipping Thinner - Acetone, probably 50/50 mix or slight more Acetone Process was lightly sand guitar and fix any dings. Paint base coat and let dry for at least 1 day. Prepare water with Borax and STIR a LOT. Squirt various thinned paint colors on top. Dip the body down completely. Clear the paint from the top. Raise the body. Hope that helps!
