Cool man. Be sure not to use any more than 3 ounces of mixed epoxy. I made the mistake of putting on way too much and it took forever to sand down.
De-fretted and Mirror coated my bass!

Tested out this bass playing some Reggae last night. Has a great fat sound. Tonight is Metal band practice night. WoO!

Inspiring stuff! On the last pics of the OP, did you make a ''bowl'' with the tape to hold the resin? How much did the stuff costs?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Yes I did! worked like a charm and when it dried, the tape just peeled right off.
The resin cost me 40 bucks.
I borrowed some nippers, but if you had to buy them id go to stewmac and buy some defretting pliers for 20 bucks
You'll need some sandable wood filler which costs about 2 bucks, some sandpaper, which is maybe 5 bucks for a multi pack, and a rotating sander, buffer for the high gloss shine, which cost about 70 bucks?

I'll probably post my pictures before that, the sanding and polishing has been done yesterday. The job ain't stellar, but I'm happy with the result. I'll probably post the finished picture later tonight.
