I have been asked to create a 'medium' length stick to hold open the grand piano lid. It has a low and a high height option, but not a medium. Aside from the engineering of this task (do I try to keep both existing options installed and add a 3rd? or do i replace one with the desired medium height option?), i would want to (need to?) finish that piece with a high gloss black lacquer.
Anyone have any experience with 'trying' to achieve that type of finish? (Piano gloss black)
I am going to try to achieve something close to matching the finish, but will not be obsessive about it (this is a small portion of the piano, that is generally hidden.
I am also not want to use traditional lacquer (solvent based) unless I have to.
