Onestringer arrow wraps, a sponser, makes limbsations, a vinyl tape with a pattern that works.

Put a pair of limbsations on a ILF limbs and it made them look like wood-does not show up like white writing on limbs in the woods. Great product and can remove them without marring finish. Roy
Maybe it is time to shoot what I have on the rack

"can remove them without marring finish"

I will add "usually".  Mine did not.

I use limbskins (Pin Oak pattern)on my bows when hunting and like them very much.  A side benefit I have discovered is that they can help quiet the bow. One of my longbows has limbs with foam/carbon and is a great bow but has a higher pitched ping to it. Putting the limbskins on completely deadend the sound.  I wish they made them in black for blind hunting.

I have the snakeskin pattern Limbskins on my bows and I love them.  Easy to put on and off and they protect the finish on the limbs.
