The other night I was pulling out my gold tips out of a target bag and ended up with 10 or so freaking mini splinters in my hand. It was a result of a nick in one of the shafts. Considering that there is no or little coating on gold tip expeditions is there anything that can be done to prevent this? Can floor urethane or clear lacquer be used or should I just stay away from these shafts? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
