War Bow Finish

<< < (4/4)

Rod:
The thing about applying a linseed oil finish is that you should not bathe the bow in oil. Just palm on very small amounts and rub in hard with a soft cloth, almost as if you were burnishing.
Work systematically over the bow using the absolute minimum amount of oil.
I apply beeswax in pretty much the same way, but it does need to be done on a fairly regular basis.
