Title: Refurbishing Zwickeys
Post by: Thare1774 on August 13, 2012, 11:15:00 PM
I had a set of Zwickeys that were just plain worn out. So I stripped the green paint and sharpened em, masked it off and repainted em with a forest green rustoleum. I'm really happy how they turned out, they look brand new and I got a good edge back on em.    (http://i1174.photobucket.com/albums/r617/Thare1774/IMAG0185.jpg)

Great job.  They look almost like new, or at leasted shot only two or three times.

Round those points off and get rid of that point.  Good looking points that last for ever.

Look real nice. I like mine to look like they have been around the buck a time or two.

@Bornagainbowhunter- the blades had some dame and they were dull as hell. The paint on em was messed up on all of em and I put new adapters in em because a couple were bent.
