But do you want a finish that will be so easily ruined by water or alcohol?

Edit. Suppose it depends on finish? Is there such a thing as a good all-rounder?
...and lots of patience!
If I am going for an aged 'road worn' finish I'll empty a can of primer in one go, spraying the coats on as fast as they'll go without running; leave to harden for a good few days then flat back lightly. Repeat process with gloss top coat and voila, instant 40-years-worth of character!
However, a nice shiny finish takes bl**dy forever!
Half a dozen very light coats, leave to harden, flat back, repeat ad infinitum, taking care not to rush a single stage; ultimately very rewarding though... ;;)
Google ReRanch for probably all the guidance you'll ever need.
Bad guitar tech. Bad boy.
Thinking of trying a two tone sunburst strat... To complement my other strat in wudtone fiesta red.
Sounds and feels fantastic. Currently saving the pennies for a medium-jumbo refret and then I've got "my" strat for life.
I genuinely feel that Steve was on to something with these deliberately thin/fragile finishes. Mine looks like a custom shop relic, albeit with the dings and scrapes inflicted by me, after a couple of years' relatively light use.
