Removing name - Black Widow bow?
« on: August 25, 2007, 10:14:00 PM »
I saw a Black Widow bow that I would consider buying but it has a name (applied by the factory) that I cannot live with.

Anybody ever removed a name from a BW bow?

How difficult was it?

Can it be done at home with out wrecking the finish?

Light sanding will work well and than re-apply a couple light coats of spar. Or get their own finish(Black widows). shawn

I hate it when an old girlfriend's name pops up on a bow.  Makes me wanna get out a belt sander.

Black widow sells a widow sticker you can put over the name.

0000 Steel Wool and take your time. After you get the name off. Spray on some DEFT satin finish. It will be as good as new.

I have taken many names off Widows especially and replaced the the section with a "wildlife" stamp such as a deer, turkey, or indian head that hobbiest use to make greeting cards. Once it drys, put on a light coat of DEFT.
