Red Cap Classic

perfect finish for my guitar?
Hello, i have a 1995 Kramer guitar and i just sanded the old finish completely off, then painted it with Ace brand indoor - outdoor fast drying enamel spray paint. (i sprayed it in the cap and brushed it on). When i did it i used the colors red, black, and white because i did a replica of Eddie Van Halen's classic guitar. I wanted to put some kind of protective finish over it so the paint won't ware off or fade. Can someone tell me what would be the best protective coat that i could put over the finish? (it needs to be waterproof because i sweat a lot when i play). thanks.
Nitrocellulose is the most common used high end finish that you put on guitars. You can also put lacquer or polyurethane on it. Nitrocellulose lets the wood in the guitar breath a little. You can research the three finishes online to make your choice. The best way to put the finish on is to spray it on.
After putting it on, you may want to buff it out to get a mirrored finish. If so, you should use sandpaper starting at around 1500 grits all the way up to 3000 and use a wet sand. Then get some high grade micro abrasive polish to really make it shine. I don't know how involved you want to get, but you can look at numerous videos on youtube to see how its done or check with Stew Mac (link below) for proper parts and techniques for a professional finish.
