Okay, real quick question about the fiberglass on my bow.

Just started refinishing it, and am in the process of sanding w/ 220. Got the limbs sanded down to glass, but I notice in a few spots, in the edge of the glass, I can see little white dots, like there's lateral weaving or something and I'm seeing the ends. Is this normal? Is it dangerous? Will it go away once I put finish on it? Seems like when I wipe some denatured alcohol on it, they almost disappear.

Searched on this and couldn't find anything. Tried to take some pics, but my camera won't focus good enough to get a good picture.

The glass is black.

Thanks for any help you can give me, it's appreciated.

Hi Kiefer,

Probably the scrim strands,which is a woven layer , shouldn't be a problem, and should disappear when you spray finish on em.
Stay sharp, Kenny.

The white dots are more noticeable with red glass and yes they disappear when the finish is applied. Mike
