nitorlack - NitorLACK Golden Age 1L

New additive-free formula, similar to that used in Fender and Gibson guitars in the 1960s.

  • Does not contain plasticizers in its formula
  • It has a less plastic effect on the finish of your guitar, with little elasticity and faster aging than traditional nitrocellulose.
  • Temperature changes will produce crazing on its surface, with much finer and more natural lines than those produced by nitro relic.
  • It stands out from other formulas due to its high gloss.
  • It is recommended for use in combination with Relic Patina.
  • If the lines do not appear, repeat the cooling process at 12-hour intervals, alternating with room temperature.

What is the new plasticizer-free nitro?
This new nitrocellulose is a recreation of the nitrocellulose used by Fender and Gibson throughout the 60s. It modifies the formulation by eliminating the plasticizers to increase its rigidity and obtain a varnish that will make it easier to obtain a more natural and vintage look.
The main advantage compared to the different nitrocellulose varnishes is the speed of evaporation and melting between coats, thus allowing a more noticeable gloss effect and a greater vibration of the wood.

Application guide:
  • Before starting the process the surface must be properly prepared. For this, the pore must have been closed before.
  • We start by varnishing the sides first and then continue with the front and back sides
  • Movements should be linear, first horizontal and then vertical, and the surface should not be overloaded.
  • The distance at which the product should be applied is about 25 cm.
  • For best results, the temperature at the application site should be between 15 and 25 degrees.
IMPORTANT:
  • The spray product contains a higher amount of solvent and therefore does not produce very pronounced crazing. If you are going to use spray and want a more pronounced streaking you should use Relic Gloss.
  • The product in a 1L can should be mixed with approximately 15% solvent. The higher the proportion of solvent, the less aggressive the crazing will be.
Extra tip: Whatever format you use the product in, if after the guitar comes out of the freezer for the first time, the cracks do not appear, repeat the freezing process 2-3 more times.
