well its actually dipped, not mine, but thinking of doing something similar. I think it is bad ***. Just not sure how it would hold up. I would imagine you would have to clear coat after dipping it.

Interesting. What do you mean by "dipped"?

Almost camo, in the woods it would be almost invisible.

film dipped finishes are very durable. Most archery equipment used this process and I don't ever remember damaging the finish very much. And I was notorious for "drop-tuning" my bow when I missed a shot.
