It would probably be OK , but most people use just a damp cloth .

IDK... Car wax will make a bow look new again.    :thumbsup:

Paste wax works good as a protective top coat.  Is there an I scented pledge?  That would be my only concern.

I have heard pledge furniture polish being used but not floor cleaner. Just wipe her down with a damp cloth. I think a car wax would be a good way to protect the finish but why shiny up a hunting bow?

I have used the Pledge for furniture before. It was what came into my hand first so I used it. My concern was a wet bow not dirty bow. Heck I used Armor All, car wax, bowstring wax, even a wax sold by Black Widow. If your concerned about the shine it goes away pretty quick unless you have a gloss finish.

selfbows need oil sometimes....fiberglass bows just a CLEAN wet cloth will work fine to get it clean....I suppose a wax of course would offer a smidgen of protection but the sealers usually  take care of that pretty well....that's what they are four.

I like to slick up arrows and keep them clean for quietness across the shelf and through game...probably overkill on the latter...as my 4 blades take care of that....tire wet does that pretty well...especially on top of turtle wax.
