Same for me here on tru oil.    Works good to seal up.  I then also use a satin spray polyurethane or the like.  I like this one it dries pretty hard and seem pretty clear.  Worked good for me over the tru oil on hide too.  Here’s one I did earlier this year on a yew bow.  I just used a small paint brush and use fiebings alcohol based leather dye.  Let it dry really well before putting your finishing coats on as the leather dye will effect the drying of your finishes. FYI.

Stick heads way makes a bow go from so, so to beautiful. Will B. uses that combo a lot with excellent results.

Selfbowman:
All done. Just the raw hide back did not hold it I had to raw hide rap the spot also. To bad it did turn out nice.you can also see the trapping I did on the bow.
