Also look into some back issues of Guitar World. It started lasty September I beleive but they had a month by month issue special lesson" on refinishing your paint jobs. The title was something like "how to create your own paint job with spray cans" or something like that.

The writer is located in Canada and has been doing custom jobs for over a decade and each "lesson" takes you through a step by step how to and recommended products you can get a t your local hardware store.

The best place to find back issue ( if they carry this publication) would be your Library and some music stores carry the back issues also.
