I'm looking for advice on a long lasting paint job on some fiberglass limbs I have. They are bear takedown limbs in white.
Thanks in advance

Krylon makes some products that work quite well. As does Rustoleum.

Rustolem 2X for outdoor use. I use it to spray carbon shafts. Stuff holds up well. It might be a “forever “ paint job as I had to use “Aircraft Stripper” to remove paint from some shafts once. That stuff eats flesh so I can imagine what it would do to the orginal finish.

thanks guys, I'm guessing I should dull the finish first with some fine steel wool?

I once built a set of limbs with clear glass. When I pulled off the tape they were so streaky I just set them aside. Later I decided to paint them so I sanded them put on a couple coats of paint then a clear coat. They have stood up great for several years. Looking back I just wished I would have used a more interesting color like Heters mustard.

Thanks bowbaker. I'm feeling much more confident in this now. I just was worried that I would end up with a mess haha.
