Raddle can spray finish warning.......

If you use spray can finish for your bows you always need to put the protective top back on the can after each application. If not on your finish coat you could possibly pick up a can of automotive primer and spray the riser, just a heads up

Should help keep the rust down on the wood veneers though.

Hey, most of my home camo'd bows have a bit of auto primer in them.  Nice and flat and covers up my crappy looking bows.

Oops, for sure! So, how does that grey camo job look?

Here is how one of mine came out.  various flat paints including some auto primer.  Not meant to be removed!

 

 

I was just plain unhappy about the appearance of this bow.  It is an elm riser and elm lams under clear glass.  I  made the mistake of trying to stain the lams!  Not a good thing on these.  So, on went the paint.  It went from being a sore reminder of my mistake to being one of my favorite bows.

I don't think most bows need any camo for practical purposes.
