Title: Gray glass
Post by: AlanF on October 24, 2012, 12:43:00 PM
I'm on the list for a Vintage Works bow for next summer and I would like to have a 64 Kodiak as close to original as possible.  Therefore I am trying to locate gray (dark to medium in color) fiberglass.  Is there any available anywhere?  If not the gray how about green?  I know this is a long shot but not sure where else to look.  Thank you.

Alan

Try Craig Ekin at Howard Hill Bows.  Don't set that gray bow down in a Eastern Hardwood forest.  You'll lose it.

Try Mike Fedora. He had some colors in the past.

Sponsor as well.

I bought a few pieces of gray off of Dale Stahl about a year ago, he may have some.

Did you find any? You can have them paint the glass any color.

Yes, Mike Fedora has a light, medium and dark grey (2" or 1 3/4"). I bought some of the medium and it is just a little darker than a '59 Kodiak Special grey, the dark grey may be what your looking for, but I have not seen it in person.
