Title: Scorpion Venom string fluid?
Post by: maineac on December 26, 2012, 05:37:00 PM
My wife got me a bottle as a stocking stuffer. Never herad of it.  Anyone have any experience with it?  Always used wax, but have some SBD strings.  Didn't know if it was designed for that type of string material.

works well you need to allow it about 15 minutes to dry after application. One of the great things about it is that it gets to the string under the serving too.

You can also get it in a wax form.It is made for the newer fibers D97 D10. I have been using it for a while now, prefer it to bees wax for lubing the string. I still use my home brew to build strings though. Seems to relly cut down on fraying. JimG

That's all we use on our strings and highly recommend it.  We carry it and Lancaster Archery has it.

God bless,  Pierre

some of the very best mike. made to be used on fast flight strings. it will really improve skinny "skb" style strings and is very long lasting and water resistant.

Pierre,  Do you use the fluid or the wax, or does it matter?  If string wax is already on the string can this fluid still be used?  

Thanks,

Pete,

We use the fluid mostly.  The wax in certain instances.  The fluid will actually penetrates the serving material thru to the string bundles. Does not matter if there is already wax on the string.

God Bless,   Pierre
