Thank You.
I just stumbled on this video and I was so glad that you shared this because I also use 2P-10 to fill open grains! It works great! I will actually mist some activator over the surface once the glue has been spread and the wood is completely covered. Great product!...but that's Fastcap!
+Renew Furniture Thanks so much!
+Renew Furniture So what is the activator for? What does it do? (forgive me; I'm a layman on these things)
+51MontyPython the activator is a liquid that, when it makes contact with the glue, will almost instantly harden/cure it. Normally when using this glue made by Fastcap, you would apply the glue on one surface and then spray the activator on the the other surface before putting them together...but be warned - it does dry almost instantly. So in the case of using it as a filler, we apply the glue, spread it around and then "hit" it with the activator so we can keep moving. Does that help? :) It is pretty tough to sand off, so run a test first to get comfortable with the results for sure.

Some sturaaaaaange shit, I tell ya :)
Some incredibly beautiful guitars entrusted with 2P-10! #woodworking
WOW what craftsmanship!
Very nice brilliant guitars
Andy McKee - Rylynn. Amazing guitarist that they should have credited.
Mike V seriously. Seems like a luthier should understand this concept. I wonder how he would feel if I re-posted his video with my own voice over?
I'd be more convinced if i were to see how difficult and time consuming the sanding and leveling process ends up being.
Looks and sounds amazing - would love to know more about this fascinating technique
With that said, any words on the durability on the long term?
I'm incredibly interested in becoming a Luthier, I was wondering if I could learn more about the process.
My eyes and throat are burning just thinking about the CA smell. Shades of my youth getting more glue smell than I want when gluing ribs in an RC airplane wood while sitting too close (for wanting to get a perfect close-up view) to the work.
Most informative & Nice choice a of Background Music :-)
Hello thank you for the education. But what grit sandpaper do you use when sanding the full guitar down. What grit do you begin using on the hardened 2p-10 and up to what grade? and do you just have to use one coat or is it based on if it completely filled the pours? Thank you!
150-400

Hello, to repair the holes in wood which 2P-10 glue do you use, Jel, Tick, Medium or Thin? Thank you.
wow, using superglue to act as the first base coat/filler... that is a quick way to do things i suppose, although the method shown for application probably isn't the quickest way to do it because it would require more sanding to compensate for the troughs and valleys that the uneven spreading creates.
Right? I'm thinking a nice wide squeegee, works faster with less waste.

Ignorance at its finest.
You know, that's a shame. Rosewood, wich is called here in Brazil "jacarandá", it's all but extinct, and yet, it's still used to make something as ephemeral as a guitar. The same thing happens to the very tree that gave Brazil it's name: Pau-Brasil.
There guitars that are over 100 years old in existence today - I think they make a wonderful use of the wood personally.
JohnBee the problem is more about preservation actions like planting new trees that should have been done
Like from Brasil \,,/
I have a project that is soaking up water (wicking/capillary action) I can't re-design it so I need to fill the end grain pores. Do you think a thin CA glue could offer a solution (prior to a marine varnish of course?
Yes, that would work fine. Paul
the background music is beautiful, what is it?
Look up Andy McKee
Is that Andy McKee in the background? Havent heard that piece in a while! Great vid!
Will this p2-10 really fill the pores of any wood? Are additional applications needed?
Any wood.
will this fill micro sanding scratches on the wood? i cant ever seem to get all the scratches out going through the grits. not sure if its technique or crappy paper or what but they always show up after i apply the fininsh
Try it and see what happens. It's more than likely a sander problem, not the sandpaper.
I can't see any of the products used what did u put the rosewood sawdust in a then u sprayed something?
The two FastCap products use are the 2P-10 and the Activator. You can find them here. www.fastcap.com/product/2p-10-solo-kit
what does taylor guitars use for a finish???? Would this work to repair the finish on a taylor???
I think you should call Taylor guitars and ask them.
Has it lost sounds?
What do you call that shiny thingy you putting in the back of the guitar??
2P-10 is the filler being used - www.fastcap.com/estore/pc/viewPrd.asp?idproduct=105
So if I was planning on sanding down and refinishing my acoustic guitar top, would I need to use something like this before I apply whatever finish I choose to use? Or can I just slap the finish straight on?
+51MontyPython I have built 2,000 guitars, but I'm not comfortable telling you exactly how to proceed with the finish on yours. This product is designed specifically for filling the pores on new wood. It can also effectively be used for repairs. Paul
FastCap
Is it necessary in your opinion to apply a finish on top of the sealer, for protection of the wood from humidity changes, or should the sealer alone be sufficient enough? I may want to try it that way because I feel like the more you throw on there the more it takes away from the wood's natural resonance and tone.
+51MontyPython It's a good point. I think ultimately it's just up to your personal opinion what you think is best for the musical instrument. Paul
Could this be applied over a cured Danish Oil ?
+Ron W yes
will the 2p10 and saw dust take stain?
The saw dust will, but not the 2p10.
After spreading the 2P10 over the back of that guitar, do you spray the activator on it?
Looks like Devin Volta's guitar! :)
Lynn Laveote!
Do you not have to seal the sides?the back only
Everything.
great video! although I found all the experts hiding in the comment section as usual.
Do you use the hardener afterwards?
Len uses a high-performance epoxy style finish. Regarding what kind of finish you can use on top of the 2P 10, it does not matter.
Do you make custom guitar ?
www.laviolette-guitars.com/index.html
Is using 2P-10 just for lacquer finishes ?
+Kenny Lilly 2P-10 can be used on any material as long as it is clean and the surface is well prepared. The surface should be clean, with no oil, and slightly etched so the glue can bite more effectively. It should not be used in lieu of a weld (on metal), but it is very effective for tacking, to hold a piece in place.
When you say "slightly etched", would you say sanded to 220 is slightly etched?
80 150 would be better. Paul
Do you use a water based or an oil based finish on top of this filler/ sealer? Can you use either type?
Which viscosity 2P-10?
Kathy, Len uses a high-performance epoxy style finish. Regarding what kind of finish you can use on top of the 2P 10, either. It does not matter. Paul
wow guys, with all due respect to the builder and fastcap, that's awful lot of CA fumes to work with
what clearcoat do you put on over the top of the 2P-10 ? i fancy trying it out when i build my next bass but I would hate to use something that reacted with it
To my knowledge there is no clear coat that would not work over the top of it, but you will have to test that. Paul
I use shellac, goes over anything and anything goes over it (pretty much)
Gluboost, the best CA around will work over it. Clear as glass.
Any finish will adhere to CA glue. Id sand it up to 600grit and spray away.
Can you apply tru oil over this on a rosewood body?
I don't think it should be a problem, but you should test it first!
I've wondered about using this stuff. I would like to see you sanding it too. Can you get away with one coat?Mike McNerney
It sounds perfect. it's hard acrylic plastic. One coat would look like one coat...not as good as two, and not as good as three.
Ohh would you look at this ..just look at it
WOw this is great advice here. It's amazing how beautiful a project comes out when you put in some elbow grease. I love how tung oil doesn't leave dust nibs and hairs in your finish like poly does. It's also a bonus that the finished wood just begs to be caressed like a $3000 gun stock or a Taylor guitar. I've been using this tung oil that is made with orange peels, smells awesome! orangetungoil.com
this guy cracks me the hell up, white socks and backpacker sandals. holy hell.
obviously very talented but dude?
That's the beauty of it...we are all different!
the music rylynn Andy Mckee
Super glue on wood? Wouldnt that make the wood much stiffer?
No not really
FastCap i'd say it would because when super glue dries.. it is brittle..
The guy in the back ground talks to much
this oil？
2P-10 is a Cyanoacrylate Adhesive.
need polish？
To chyba Polak...
+Karol Lichota Que?
Why the background music? Otherwise excellent video
Thanks.
Whoever is interviewing is the most irritating interviewer I’ve heard. Keeps interrupting.
It seems like a luthier should understand the importance of giving credit for music that isn’t their own... in this case, “Rylynn” by Andy McKee was played but credit was never given to the musician. Seems like it wouldn’t have been so time consuming considering the large notes section you have already created.
Socks and sandals. Why are you doing this to us?
Do you use the activator to fill grain?
You can, but you don't need to. It will set up on its own.
Thank you!
