Wow!!!!!!! That's going to look great.
When I was learning to play the guitar, I just had a cheap one I got in a pawn shop. Not electric. My brother sent me one for a birthday present back about 40 years ago. It was a very cheap plain one that had a coat, or ten, of some cheap sparkle junk on it. When I tried to refinish it, I discovered it had a large crack across the entire face. It wasn't worth the time I spent trying to get that junk off. My brother said he didn't know about the damage but thought the sparkle paint was good for a joke gift. A few years ago, he finally told me he paid $5 for it. I will say this, I did not get mad but i really did get even. How i did is a story better not told.
Stay safe.
