Apply it to the headstock. At this time, be careful not to rub and peel off the decal lettering. After drying, apply several coats of very thin lacquer.

Nitrocellulose lacquer is recommended. ※Please be aware that urethane paint is not recommended※ Sanding with waterproof sandpaper #1000 or higher will result in a more beautiful finish. Thank you.
