So I decided to practice refinishing on my old Jackson JS30 or something and turns out, its a slab of wood sandwiched between two pieces of particle board. I decided to try slowly chiseling the paint/sealer off all at once in small spots, with the results being that it only pulled a very thin layer of the particle board off with it every time.
This seems like the fastest way of going about it to me. What I'm wondering is can I sand the particle board flat so that it doesn't have any (thin) dips in the surface of it while I paint it?
Or if that doesn't work, will covering the face in a thin layer of wood putty/filler and sand that all down flat to eliminate any spots work at all?
And if that doesn't work, I guess I could glue some flat thin sheets of wood over it all to make it flat.
I know it seems like a futile endevour because its half particle board but I want to try it anyways.
