Camo dipping is the way to go on mag risers.
They look amazing, are durable and inexpensive.
I believe $75

I talked to a guy in Baltimore from Alabama that knew a guy that felted them for $50. Looked like a nice job and was a better process than when Bear use to do it. Jim was the guy from Alabama and he was with Blackcreek Bows.

$50 or $75 is a deal.

I refinished a C and it took forever to strip and sand it and get it ready for paint. Between stripper, paint and primer I was into it $25 w/o any of my time.

That looks flocking awesome!

I was thinking of dipping mine but may need to reconsider...

Hurst made a T handle shift knob that was flocked back in the day and it held up ok plus was kinda warm and fuzzy in the winter, it should get rid of the cold metal feel.
