ok so im refinishing one of my guitars and im spraying the clear coat, I stop and look Wow what a sweet ass job I did one of my personal bests, absolute flawless then squeak crack boom it falls to the floor and lands in dust and overspray.. the hanger I had it on broke... Son of a bitch now I got dust and dirt all over the damn body and have to strip the son of a bitch down to bare wood again..

just thought I would share my anger..

I feel your pain.
Dunno how old this post is but if you did it before, you can do it again.
Hopefully there's no damage.
