Here are some pictures of my Ibanez Custom Flame guitar that I did with the Axewraps on the front, back and headstock. The sides of the guitar were painted yellow. All of it was cleared and buffed out to make it permanent. Enjoy.

after applying the wrap did you clear coat right on top? no sanding, no prep just clear?
nitrocellulose?
what buffer?

I used a product called Sprarmax that is a 2 part clear in a spray can. I cleared right over the wrap no prep at all. Turned out rather well. The two part clear only takes a couple of days to harden where as a nitrocellulose takes for ever (months). You can get it online for about 18.00 a can. I think I used about 3 cans. It cost more than the other but you can not beat the results. Also, you need to wear a respirator when using it. I did the level sanding by have and used an automotive buffer. Thank You for the question.

Great work! Could you shed some light on the process for the headstock and Ibanez logo?

Thank you. The Ibanez logo I got from Best-Decals.com. They do the best work on them. The process for the headstock was a as follows.
1. Sand of old logo and plastic cover to bare wood
2. Seal wood
3. Prime
4. Add Axewrap and cut flush to headstock.
5. Logo
6. Then I cleared it with multiple coats of 2 part automotive clear.
7. Wet sand.
8. Buff.
Hope this helps you.

The rebirth of Lisbon’s Cais do Sodré

For years, riverside Cais do Sodré was one of Lisbon's seediest neighbourhoods. Its backstreets were the haunt of whisky-slugging sailors craving a little after-dark sleaze; a lacklustre place where brothels sidled up to sweaty clubs.

Then suddenly everything changed. In late 2011, the district was given a makeover. Its main street, Rua Nova do Carvalho, was painted a welcoming bright pink and the call girls were sent packing, but the edginess and decadence on which Lisbon thrives remained. Live music venues, burlesque clubs and tapas bars began to pop up with astonishing frequency, and soon thereafter, Cais do Sodré had upstaged Bairro Alto as Lisbon's most happening nightlife district.
Similar to Bairro Alto, the vibe in Cais do Sodré is bohemian. Do not bother turning up anywhere much before midnight, as this is when the crowds descend. If you want to get a full taste of the area, here are a few of the neighbourhood's hottest bars and live music venues, perfect for a late-night bar crawl.
Tinned fish tapas
You do not need much imagination to see what Sol e Pesca once was. Rods, nets, hooks and fish charts give away the tiny bar's former life as a fishing-tackle shop. Glass cabinets are stacked with vintage-looking tins of sardines, tuna, octopus and other kinds of seafood (or conservas as the Portuguese say). The concept is simple: grab a chair, order a tin or two, and accompany it with bread, olives, white wine and good company. Sol e Pesca is open until 4 am on weekends.
