Looking for the correct way to refinish limbs on older ('61 &'62) Bear bows. Do I use wet sanding with 400 grit and then use what to seal the limbs up again. Have a 66" '61  K special that needs some loving care and don't want to screw it up. How can super glue be diluted ( with what) to fill in the stress lines?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions. Have done a few risers with good results but haven't tackled limbs yet.
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

I use 100 to remove the original finish 400 wet dry will take a long time.Birchwood & Casey Tru Oil gun stock finish works pretty darn good on fiberglass and wood.Buy some thinner super glue like loc tite 420 as 420 is make to wick into the cracks keep us posted on how its going bd
