Title: What goes over tru oil?
Post by: Paul/KS on September 02, 2013, 01:38:00 PM
Ok, so what can be wiped/brushed or sprayed over Tru-Oil that is already on my bow ?
Does spray on poly work..?

Paul, I believe it will work.
I never used anything but the Tru-oil. One reason for using Tru -oil is you,can always add more coats as needed.

Brush-on spar varnish or spray spar urethane is what I use. Works great over Tru-oil............Art B

I use spray on satin poly on all my bows with Tru-Oil finish to cut the shine.
