    I'm taking a shot at fixing my top limb on my recurve as we speak. I'm going to sand down the whole bow and give her a nice looking finish when I'm done. My question Is, how do you get paint off of fiberglass? My limbs are backed with fiberglass.

    Thanks In advance!

    Go to the Sherwin-Williams store or Home Depot and get paint stripper. It's like a jelly that you paint on let it sit for an hour or so and wipe off then wash. You might have to do it a few times to get it all clean. When it's done I'd look into getting it dipped it in the new camo finishes or Limb Skinz Skinz.
