Great Lakes Custom Colour

These are professional grade finishing products. Made available to even the DIY market through custom filling. After years of developing and creating North Americas best colours we've developed a system to offer them to everyone. We have our own aerosol filling machine for the DIY builders or standard tins for professional builders. We aren't your everyday retail store. Everything is mixed and made fresh when ordered.

All of our lacquers are now available in custom filled aerosols, 4oz, 8oz , *Quart and *Gallon variations. Our lacquer is the highest quality in North America and is supplied ready to spray. This ensures you have the best nitrocellulose possible and the right amount for any project you may have. Whether you are a first time finisher or a professional builder we have exactly what you need to get the job done right with the right colours. We've done everything from guitars, motorcyles, cars to custom paintings.

We are the only shop in North America to mix and fill orders fresh when ordered. You can be assured you're getting fresh products that haven't been sitting on a shelf for over a year. Every order with us truly is a custom order filled just for you.

Our dyes are world class. They are able to be mixed in almost anything. Water, Alcohol, Lacquer Thinner etc.

Our wet sanding and polishing kit is the best you'll find and is specific for nitrocellulose guitar finishing. Allowing you to sand less and still achieve the level of mirror finish you're after.

A lot of years and attention to detail have gone into our colours and finishing products. There isn't a shop around that provides what we can provide for your build as far as finishing goes.

Please feel free to browse our large selections of finishing products, colours and custom guitar parts to set your build apart from others.
