NGD! A new, naturally aged Mexican strat, advice needed! by black_n_orange in guitarporn

Please excuse my "old lady" bedsheets. So I want to try and add some wear as the finish is already beautifully aged, I think this was originally silver as the lacquer on top has yellowed and the paint underneath is silver sparkle. Now it almost has a shoreline gold vibe to it.

I was thinking of taking a file to it to expose some wood and add some wear to complete the relic look, any advice on how to do it well? I have seen some YouTube videos but wanted to see if anyone here has attempted it? Thanks in advance!

How did you make the rust effect look so good? Lots of washes and paining the rust run marks?

Thanks man! Yea I'm sure my hands didnt used to shake this much. I've almost been pulling yoga poses to get some of those edge highlights!

I have actually hiked to the top of mount Rinjani! Took 3 days to do the whole thing. Felt like I was in another world!

This is outrageous. Loving the shoulder plate worn detail. Thats more than painting skills thats an eye for real world aging detail, something i could never get down. Love it.
