SPEEDBALL INDIA INK ON ROSEWOOD FRETBOARD HOW TO
↳ How to Participate in the Delcamp Classical Guitar Forum.Even a black felt tip pen smudged in with your finger can help on the cheap. Ink with shellac mixed in (water proof) acts as a top coat, and so doesn't rely on colouring the wood, even if it can, so given that's the method I've used most, it is the method I'd recommend for smaller areas, (I use Speedball brand) but others will have their own ideas. If you can avoid doing any fills, then there's a whole host of things that can help to add a little colour back, providing the wood underneath accepts it. You'd need to ask somebody who uses that method as to what it's limits and capabilities are. I'm not sure it's going to work well over a glue fill though should you need to do any. If you were ebonizing a neck, then sure, it's probably fantastic, although you also need to use a tannin solution, as without it you'll not get it dark enough. I don't use the iron acetate method, as it's far too long winded for small repairs, unless you have some already made up. Ford's efforts to maintain the look of a rosewood board are useful to know when trying to preserve the look of a natural wood finish, and we've all learned things from that guy, but yours isn't a natural wood finish, so it's a completely irrelevant fix, employed for a completely different need. While a few suggestions have been put to you, they're not necessarily relevant to your scenario. Any finish on your fretboard needs to be replicated if you remove it, so bear that in mind. If scars are deep enough that a bit of scraping won't remove them, then you need to fill. Scraping is useful for surface work, such as cleaning, and smoothing, as you don't get scratch marks etc that you can when sanding. I am sorry I tried taking a bunch of pics but they don't show any more than the one. You mean blade scrape and a glue to fill in. You can raise divots a little with a soldering iron, or a clothes iron, but you won't really raise a divot that has been worn away, and instead you'll need to fill the lows. If everything is fairly shallow, then a blade scrape will take care of most of it, and possibly some Indian ink sealed in with wax or shellac etc. * You need to post pictures that offer detail if you want any advice to be in context with your specific problem.
It looks like a hardwood fingerboard that has been painted, or dyed to simulate ebony. I can't tell much from the image you posted, but I don't see anything particularly deep.
