Oneida Bow Custom Swirling

Second attempt at swirling my Oneida H-250. This time I used a gloss green base coat. I did not sand it or wipe down with mineral spirits. I wiped it down with a nylon dress sock and used a flashlight to make sure I got all of the dust off of it. Then used a blow dryer to blow the rest of the dust off. I also used my flashlight to check the water for hair, dirt, dust, etc.... Any impurities on the bow or in the water I found will cause either a distorted swirl or a run in the dipping. One out of the water I used a blowdryer to blow excess water off of the riser. For the beads of water that seem to "stick" I just blew as hard as I could and they rolled right off. If the paint dries with a bead of water on it, the paint will form a dot there and look kind of ugly. For all of your Oneida bow questions and orders, please visit www.oneidabows.net
