I bought a cheap violin to relearn how to play. The paint job was so awful I decided to give it a facelift! I stripped it, sanded it, filled holes, primed it and painted it. Then I applied black with a dry brush technique to give it an antique look. Then clear coated with polyurethane. This project required a ton of patience with all the details and nooks and crannies, it definitely tested my patience.
