What is your opinion of skin-eez limb skins? Are they still in business? Thanks
Brian
Just put a set over some carbon limbs. They look good but are very shiny. I'm not sure if I'll keep them on for hunting or not. Easy to put on, anyway.

Skin-Eez and Arrow Wraps unlimited is still going strong. I talked to Adam this weekend and he's busy as a one-armed paper hanger. I have the Skin-Eez on three bows and like 'em, especially the Canebrakes.
I haven't seen or tried the ones from Onestringer. I know Adam and count him as a friend, plus I like to buy mine from the guy who came up with the idea for them and the arrow wraps. Some folks don't like the texture of artificial skins. There is a difference in how they look, especially up close, but call Morrison and get a price for a set of real skins on your limbs. A fellow could go through a lot of Skin-Eez for the cost of one real set. PLus, if you change your mind or want to sell the bow, they come right off.
I have experimented with some of the satin poly finishes on my Skin-Eez and it seems to work at dulling the finish a bit.
I like mine, have purchased some from both places, will now purchase my wraps and faux skins(when I use them/I still perfer to dip or airbrush)from onestringer. I like the ten inch wraps better than the others for the arrows(just wish I could get some one inch longer, oh well)anyway great product(skins) at a great price that really makes a bow look good!
Scott, please elaborate on the satin finishes for dulling the skin-eze. I'd love to try that.
Are the prices on the site for a pair of skins or a single skin?
A pair. I think it was about $25 for a bow.
Does onestringer have a website?

pseman/Terry,
Thanks! I found it in the sponsor's list. I sent him an email and perchance ya'll can answer my question. Do the limbstations include a pair for the price shown? ;) :knothead: :D
Bill
Price is for a pair.
Onestringer (Scott and Mindy) were very helpful. They helped me design a set with our hunt club logo and it really looks neat.
Bowfiend,
I had been looking for a satin finish that would replace the "frost" finish that Black Widow had on my SAV Ironwood.
I went to the hardware store and picked up about five cans of various satin finishes, semi gloss, flat and so forth. I picked up a can of this off brand satin clear poly, I used it on the riser section and was pleased, I decided that since the Eze Skin was a little shinny, I would try a few things. I used fine steel wool to just dull the finish a litte. This worked pretty well, but I had to be careful not to remove the graphics.
That worked on one limb, so I decided to use the satin spay poly on the other limb, when I sprayed it, and allowed it to dry in the breeze outside it dulled nicely.
I had some of the wrap left over after triming, I suggest you experiement between the poly and other finishes to get the best effect. Use the extra first and pick the one you like best. I am pleased...
Anyone know if one is less shiny than the other?
