Can I paint my Electric Guitar?

I have a a “toy” guitar basically…a squier…and I have been told if you want to paint or mod anything on it…do it on the one you have with the least value. sometime soon im getting an ibanez or a gibson..but i would find it neat to just change the paint on my squier strat just to make it look cooler. if anyone could give me some step by step stuff on how to custom paint my strat, i’d really appreciate it…im not to sure if i wanna paint it yet…but it sounds fun and interesting…thanks for any answers!
by the way, i love to paint and draw random stuff…so if i put it on a guitar…it’d probably come out pretty neat.

1. If you are lucky enough to own more than one guitar, pick out the one which is of least value to you, for example, the first electric guitar most people own when they are young, is something like a Replica Stratocaster, by makers such as Squire, Vintage, or Encore. These guitars are fairly cheap and it is not a great loss if you damage them.
2. Unless you have a spacious indoor area like a workshop available, you will be doing most of the work outside, so the best time is to wait until the late spring or early summer.
3. Strip down the guitar. Unwind your tuning pegs and remove the strings.
4. Get yourself a set of screwdrivers of various sizes, although it is likely you will only need 2 or 3 different sized screwdrivers. Also, find a box with partitions in it or a few small boxes in which you can store parts such as screws and knobs and tuning pegs. If it helps, you can label them.
5. With a screwdriver, remove the screws on the back of the guitar which attach the neck to the body, therefore removing the neck so you have the lone guitar body to work with.
6. Work your way around the scratch plate, removing the screws and placing them in one of the little boxes as appropriate, and remove the Jack plate cover.
7. Ensure you have access to a soldering iron, and know how to use it, or know someone who does who is willing to help out later on. Often in strat style guitars, the wires that attach the jack input to the pickups and pots (volume and tone dials) go through a hole drilled through the body, which means you will need to snip the wires in order to remove the scratchplate components and the input jack. Since there are only best thing to do is to have some sticky labels or coloured tape, and colour code the 2 wires to the 2 metal parts of the jack input to which they are soldered, then snip as close to the solder as you can, so you have the full lengths of wire intact.
8. There may be (well, there should be) a third wire, which acts simply as a ground wire, which goes from the pickups to the piece of metal in the back of the guitar to which 3 or 4 springs will be attached. You will need to have removed the plastic cover on the back of the guitar, and you will see it, label it with some tape is necessary, then cut it close to the solder. You should now be able to completely remove the scratchplate, complete with pickups, pots and all electrical parts still attached to it. Keep this section very safe from dust or static, just keep it in its own cardboard box with a closeable lid.
9. Remove all metal components from the wooden guitar body, labeling for future reference where necessary.
10. Have a plain guitar body; usually replica makes are coated in cheap acrylic paint. This takes considerable effort to remove, unless you (or your parents) possess a belt sander and or oscillating sander. You can clamp the guitar body down to a work bench, and use the belt sander with a medium grit sand belt to remove most of the acrylic in the flat areas such as on the front and back of the guitar, and the oscillating sander to work the more awkward areas such as the contours around the body. If when using the belt sander you make the surface of the wood slightly uneven, i.e. you make small ’steps’ in the wood, do not attempt to even them out with the belt or oscillating sander, this will be done by hand later. Work carefully until you have removed as much of the acrylic as possible, whilst having as little contact with the wood itself as possible. Use the gun to heat the body and scrape the paint and finish off. This usually works quite well and is much safer than a sander (you wont change the shape of the body).
11. Get 3 pieces of sandpaper, a coarse grade (’50 grit’) a medium grade (’100 – 120 grit’) and a fine grade (’150-170 grit’) Those numbers represent the size and density of sand/glass grains on the surface of the paper, 50grit being harsh and 150grit being very fine. Work over the entire body with the coarse grained paper, working to even out any steps or imperfections caused by the power sanders, and remove any remaining acrylic in places such as the arc of the cutaways.
12. Work over the entire body with the medium grit sandpaper to make sure all the contours flow properly, and finally with the fine grained sandpaper. This last bit of sanding should take at least 45 minutes to an hour, you must work over the body thoroughly with the fine grit paper, until you can brush off the dust, and run your fingertips over all the contours without even being able to feel the grain of the wood, let alone bumps or steps.
13. With a dry cloth, brush off all the dust, then take a high grit sandpaper and wet it down. Wet sanding removes any oil from fingers and also provide a better surface to paint. Gently rub down the guitar with the sandpaper and allow to dry. It should take about ten minutes and you are now ready for you base coat of paint.
14. Decide how you want to paint
