    Bow Makeover

    Now that I’ve got a couple of other good shooters to pass the time, I finally decided to start my makeover. The red and black was getting old and tiring and maybe a little dated. I will update as things progress, but it will be a two week build or so.





    Hope I can put it all back together






    After I got to bare riser, I slapped a thick coat of Strypeeze, and let it sit for a bit. Then I hit it with the pressure washer






    A little Dremel work with a cup brush attachment and she cleaned up nicely.





    Will start on limbs tomorrow and possibly cams. Looking forward to the final product.

    Off to a good start

    Any plans or just going to make it up as you go?

      It’s all planned out.

      New color for riser and limbs, antler grips and badges, new strings/cables, and I’m swapping cams out from a later model bow.

              Be very careful with the limbs, I ruined a pair of limbs by using a fine grain sander to get the paint off before hydro dipping them. Very easy to dig into them. Just wanted to mention

                Yea, I'm not going crazy on those. Some light hand sanding and they will be ready for coating.
