Anyone use RMS Wonder Powder to keep feathers dry?
« on: March 30, 2017, 06:58:00 AM »
What is your favorite product to keep your feathers dry? A guy at my local archery range told me that Muzzleloader Wonder Powder (used to keep powder dry) does a great job on feather. Anyone try this before?

I just use camp dry. Same silicone spray you use for waterproofing boots and tent seams. Works great.

No Snow. It's an aerosol, and it works.

I don't use the powders anymore, I got the spray that fly fisherman use to keep floating lures dry. Works wonders but I would definitely not use it until the hunt because it reeks havoc on the feathers

Try the Rust-Oleum Never Wet outdoor fabric water proofer! One treatment seems to last the life of the feathers

Various bows, but if you see me shooting, it's probably a Toelke in my hand!

I think it keeps them from properly locking back together. They just end up being more messed up than usual when you shoot them? I don't do it on all my arrows, only when I'm on wilderness hunts or to have a few on a rainy day specifically for hunting
