I have been studying that process for a while and will probably try it soon as well.

Has anyone tried this on a bow yet to know if it is flexible when finished just worried about the finish cracking up...

I have tried it and it works well. Drys much faster than regular tru oil alone and did not have any issues with cracking.

Would this work with wipe-on polly??? On a glass bow, do you cover the glass the same as the wood???

Wipe on poly and trueoil are chemically different but I tried it anyway. The armorall didn't improve anything with wipe on poly.
