Sounds about right.  Show us pics when you're done.

Ok refinishing gurus....I'm working on another bow. What is the trick to sanding and working around decals and writing on the bow?
I'm smart enuff to sand and wipe on tru-oil, but don't have enuff sense to post pics...I'm working on that and I'll show ya'll what I've been working on one day soon.
