where can you get fullerplast?
I would rather fail at something above my means, than to succeed at something  beneath my means

I hate cleaning up a paint gun along with all the other mess involved. If I spray 4 quarts on a car it doesn't seem like such a big job but 2 oz. on a bow would drive me nuts.

The spar urethane sounds interesting. Is it very waterproof?

Yes, it's exterior.  But with anything else, I'd imagine if you left it under water for a month or so it would ruin it.

James, when you finish 4-5 bows at a time it's not a big deal cleaning it up afterward.

I used Varathane water based spar urethane on the last bow I just finished and I will definitely use that again.  Dried fast, very low odor-almost none, and I was able to recite within an hour.  Hopefully it will stand the test of time.  Sure looks good to me right now.

I see I can get that varathane water based spar urethane locally, so I am going to get a can for my next bow, I love spar urethane but I hate the fumes.

use it in a well ventilated place and use some sort of high quality breathing protection.  Otherwise, you're asking for trouble.
