looking to paint my bow.
Well, its come to this, damn bored of looking at the same realtree colours. Im looking to paint the thing and lil different. Any suggestions on paint? I think the camo paint should work. But has anyone painted theirs? Have paint both my own and military weapons. And Tremclad stands up good.

Re: looking to paint my bow.
I just painted my Exomax. It had a snow camo home job. I sanded down the limbs, riser, rail and stock with a 3m pad. Cleaned everything with acetone and used a Plasticote self etching primer and finally Plasticote flat black. It's still hanging in my shop as I want to let it cure well. It looks beautiful but I can tell it will not wear well. It'll be easy enough to touch up but the factory finish is by far the most durable. I looked into hydrodipping everything but it would run about $250.00 and to me it's just not worth it for a $500.00 bow.
