Title: Pearson recurve tip repair
Post by: wahoo on April 07, 2011, 10:52:00 PM
I picked up this bow and noticed where the limbs meet the tips the the string nocks are real ruff like the finish is off and the laminates are raw causing some rough edges. How would I fix this?? Thanks

Sounds like you will need a little sanding job and touch-up on it. Without seeing or feeling it I don't know what to tell you to use, maybe 320. If thats not getting them out you need try 180-220.  I am assuming you don't have to get into the laminates much, pics would be nice.

It is like the finish is off right where the string sits so it has some real ruff edges. If I could sand it some how and put some finish back on it it would be fine. I looked at the hospital but just hate to ship it if I don't have to. I'll have to learn how to post pics
