Default RE: Bowdippers/painters Question

I have been advised to NOT powdercoat the limbs...to much flex and movement for powder coating to work effectively. Riser is A ok, but I've heard from numerous people that doing the limbs is a waste of $$. Get it film dipped instead, probably similar in cost, and itll be like a factory finish...and it will last.

I guess you could powder coat the riser and dip the limbs, if you are wanting the most durable finish possible.


I tried to go through this whole process with my bowfishing bow back in July, ended up breaking it down and using Krylon spray paint, and it works good actually! To be honest, I can't tell a difference in the limbs I spray painted black and a set that is factory black. Black is black, only getting them dipped is a LOT more than $4 a can.[8D] I went with a john deere green riser and black limbs, very subtle.
