Inca silver - 500ml can
Inspired by the finish of the Chevy Corvette car from the late ‘50s, Fender starting using this colour named as ‘Inca Silver’ as a custom colour option. It was used from 1960 to 1965, when Fender changed their silver custom colour option to Firemist Silver. Fender also used it as the undercoat for Candy Apple Red until Fender switched to a gold undercoat late 1965.

This silver metallic lacquer has finer metallic parts than the NitorLACK silversparkle finish. Apart from Candy Apple Red, it’s suitable as a base coat for other coloured semi-transparent finishes as well. For this colour, using a white base is adviced; also it is essential to apply a gloss finish as a top coat to protect the colour from sanding through and give depth to the finish.

Colours for vintage-inspired guitars
After great work and exhaustive study by our laboratory and technical department, we have created colours for guitars to faithfully recreate the tones of vintage Fender and Gibson guitars to paint electric guitars. They have been based on original samples from the ‘50s and ‘60s. However, keep in mind that vintage guitar colours may have changed a lot over the years due to the aging of nitrocellulose lacquer and changes in the brands’ own colours. Therefore two guitars finished in 1960 with Fender card colours can look different between them or with respect to a more current guitar today.

Nitrocellulose paint in 500ml can
If you’d like to paint your guitar a perfect finish and you have painting equipment (spray gun and compressor) available, the best choice is nitrocellulose varnish in a can. You’ll get a higher performance by a lower price and with painting equipment the final result will be professional with less effort. It is recommended to dilute the product with our solvent to adjust the viscosity. For the application to be perfect we have two types of solvents: the usual solvent used is Solvent Medium (art. nr. 48138 / N540423104), but for ambient conditions of humidity and temperature more extreme we can use Solvent Retard (art. nr. 72041 / N540425104) to avoid bubbling and blooming in the finish.

The optimal application conditions are between a temperature of 15 to 25 °C and 50 to 70% humidity. The percentage of dilution will depend on the painting equipment and its configuration but it’s recommended to use 10 to 20% solvent. The most common gun peak is 1.3 to 1.5 and the compressor pressure is about 2.5 to 3 bars.
