Would it be difficult to add bindings to a completed instrument that is finished with Tru-oil? I was just wondering if it would ruin the finish completely or if it could be touched up and still look good.

Thanks

Philip

Yes. in repair we often have to replace a top or back and that wiil require binding repair or replacement.

This is a quick an simple answer to a long and drawn out task if the bindings are wood and the guitar is top purffed. but it can be done and is a straight forward procedure.MichaelP38756.6925578704
