Bingo! I have a MQ1 and a Pat DC with the same problem. I don' t believe paint is covered under your warranty.

You need to take it back to your mathews dealer. I have a friend who sellS mathews bows and he told me the other day that he had replaced a riser on
an LX that had the finish coming off. That bow was covered under the warranty.
I don' t know how long the finish is warranted but you dealer can answer that question.

Mathews bows include lifetime warranties for original owners. Strings, Cables and String Suppressors are exempt from this lifetime warranty.
I could be wrong. I wonder if my 7 or 8 year old MQ1 could get a new risor? Just got new limbs for it last year. Be like brand new![:-]

My Pat warranty say paint and/or film dipped finishes not covered. Looks worse than my Mathews and its only 3 weeks old.

If the bug spray has enough deet it will take finish off. I know someone who used like 60 percent and it took the paint of his camo shot gun.
