Bow Refinishing

[trapperDave]

I have an old Pearson that's been to Heck and back and I'm going to redo her. Any advice on whats best to use? what should I use on the limbs(fiberglass laminated) and wood to bring back the shine and life? Is it ok to sand the limbs to remove old varnish? I guess a step by step guide would be best if ya know of one. Bow has lots of surface wear to the finish but no cracks or gouges etc. Thanks.

I have used spray on poly, it looks great...until I had sunblock on my hand when I was bowfishing.  The finish got sticky.
From now on, it's Fullerplast for me.

You need to sand everything in order to get a professional finish. However any logos or writing you need to be careful.    On the wood I would seal it.  I use Fedeors sealer great stuff.     Then spray with Fuller Plast, Sherwin Williams catalyst varnish, or Thunderbird.
