Introduce Yourself! (2018-2022)

Yean, I was thinking more of just the clover part. Even masking the stem area, just to get the clover.
Somebody here did pour a pickguard for a Stingray, and it turned out AWESOME.
I wonder how durable it is. I think that paint, acrylic, correct? would be durable enough.
Somebody was telling me they paing their hardware, but use automotive spray paint, and a clear coat, and I can see it lasting OK on the hardware. the tuners would show wear after time, and the bridge could get scratched with string changes, but overall it would be OK.
I asked them if they ever did that on a pick guard, and they had not, but said it might work, however, I think it would come off way too easy, I am already wearing a spot on my newer custom pickguard (which is made from suprisinglly cheap materials, and sold for about 8-10x what you can get a standard black or white, or standard colors from China that are really good)
and if it were painted, I think it would already be spreading across the pick guard. With spray paint.

I do think that the acrylic paint used for pouring COULD be alot more durable on a pickguard. What do you think about that?
Thanks for the reply.
