My idea was to spray black over the top in a moderately heavy coat but with no grain filler. Then make a red grain filler paste up, rub it into the grain then sand the whole lot back so only the grain in red, the rest is black.
Does that make sense? There are more experienced finishers here who might have better ideas but that would be the method that jumps to mind.
Obviously, sourcing suitable finishes and filler is going to take experimentation.
they often look painted on by hand up close. I think they might be spraying red, painting on a liquid mask by hand, the spraying black
either way, you start with a good bit of grainy ash. If you look at the Gibson voodoo's some look great and others really dont- all down to the wood used

Just an update, I have stripped the paint off the body and just need to repair the points.
I have brought some metal filler with the ally fibres in it ,would this be good to use or will it chip off as soon as it touched.
Cheers dazz
