Thanks in advance!Www@QuestionHome@Com Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: This would be something better left to a professional luthier (string instrument builder/ repair person)!. As long as the dings don't affect the playability, I wouldn't worry about it; you're going to get a few more before it's all said and done!. Www@QuestionHome@Com Well, it's not "paint," first of all; it's varnish!. And you should not do anything with it yourself!. You have to take it to a luthier and have them fix it!. Protect your violin from further damage by not hitting it with anything!.Www@QuestionHome@Com It depends on the quality of the instrument!. I wouldn′t dare try mixing up with the finishing laquer of the violin, I would take it to a speicialist, LUTIER , who is the right person to help you!. Elaine Www@QuestionHome@Com the best thing to do is smash it on the floor - no violin= no scratchesWww@QuestionHome@Com |
