The Orange Capri color is based on the Ford colour chart of the 70?s specifically for the Ford Capri car. Obviously this colour does not go unnoticed. Combined with a rosewood or maple neck it's very elegant.

How much spray product do I need to buy to paint a guitar?
It will depend a lot on the type of wood and the amount of product that is applied for each coat and the desired finish, mirror effect or ?open pore?. But in general, to paint a guitar with a medium wood pore:
? Electric guitar neck: 2 cans of nitrocellulose clear finish (gloss or matte)
? Electric guitar body: 1 can of nitrocellulose coloured base coat, 3 cans of nitrocellulose clear finish (gloss or matte)
? Classic or acoustic: 1 can of nitrocellulose coloured base coat, 4 or 5 cans of nitrocellulose clear finish (gloss or matte)
? Ukulele: 2 cans of nitrocellulose clear finish (gloss or matte)
? If you want to apply any colour between the base coat and the clear finish you should add 1 or 2 cans of the desired guitar colour.
Spray application tips
Shake vigorously for 2 to 5 minutes before applying. It is recommended to apply the spray in thin layers and with an ambient humidity that is as low as possible. Apply with a uniform movement and with a distance of approximately 20 cm. It is important to apply a primer and sand with 400 grit sandpaper before applying the spray, to achieve a uniform surface before colouring or finishing. Sand between coats and allow to dry for 12 to 24 hours between coats. Apply in ventilated areas.
