Steinway O Board Top Finished



After the molding are glued and the front is trimmed and sanded, we are ready for the final finish on the board top. The bridges are masked, as well as the sides and front of the case. Roughly 10 coats of lacquer are applied, until a nice build is achieved. Also note that a sound board decal is installed. This is applied on top of the schellac sealer, and covered with the applied lacquer. On this piano I am spraying the inside rim black as the piano is being refinished(by another refinisher), and this is done more easily while the plate is out.
