Apply thin layers of nitrocellulose gloss lacquer with relic effect to avoid any drip and get a homogeneous distribution. Wait between 12 to 24 hours between coats. It is advised to sand slightly before putting the next coat to ensure that new coat will attached well. Regarding the relic effect, if you need more pronounced crack, it can be achieved with changes in temperature on the surface of the guitar. Also the Varnish lacquer with Relic effect can be sanded and polished the same way it is done for our other lacquers.
