Q: I have used hardware store water based polyurethane varnish before and experienced target burn. Will I experience this problem with your 3R product? Asked on 3/7/2013 by Mark from Watertown WI Know the answer? Answer this question 5 answers A: Our sealer will be more resistant to target burn than what you will normally find at a hardware store. Answered on 3/8/2013 by Justin from 3Rivers Archery A: I had the same problem with the hardware store water based polyurethane varnish, never had it since I started to use 3R water based varnish. Phil Answered on 3/7/2013 by Anonymous A: I can't answer your specific question, because after buying this product and having difficulty keeping bubbles out of its finished surfaces, I went back to using in-house gasket lacquer and, despite its minor frustrations, it worked fine. if it isn't broke, don't fix it.... -- curt Answered on 3/7/2013 by Doc's way from rural upstate New York A: I have used this product for years with no problems at all. Easy to use. Dries overnight. And arrows pull out easy from all types of targets. Jon Answered on 3/7/2013 by Anonymous A: Not likely. If you sand between coats and apply them thinly and evenly between sanding three or four times it should be good to go. I have had excellent results with 3Rivers water based shaft sealer. Extremely happy with the product! I have shot my arrows into several types of targets and the finish held up to them all so far. Answered on 3/7/2013 by oaktree1215 from Bloomington IN
Q: Can you use this with the Eco dipper system? Asked on 8/19/2012 by Dina from United States Know the answer? Answer this question 2 answers A: You can use these with the Eco Dipper system, but they do not work as well as they would with the gasket lacquer. Answered on 8/20/2012 by Justin from 3Rivers Archery A: I am just now getting around to using this sealer to make some arrows with a stiffer spine for experimentation, and I don't have enough experience with it yet to give You a definitive answer; but, after refreshing my recollection about why I, personally, DID NOT purchase this Eco dipper by watching again the film demonstration of the product's use and reflecting on my own years of making arrows, just as several of the reviewers hint at, I too think this product seems slick, but achieving good performance will depend on the proper consistency of the dip or stain being used. This specific sealer, according to the label, is described as having "high solids", which means that it is a water-based suspension not a compound, and, like most water-based treatments, somewhat thin in its consistency, which is why I rejected buying the Eco dipper for this specific liquid. I suspect its properties mean that it WOULD NOT WORK AS WELL with any water-based suspension as it would with any lacquer-based liquid. Any lacquer-based liquid would have that perfect, mildly viscous consistency You look for to use a devise like this effectively, where the mild surface tension of the fluid conflicts with the device just enough to leave a coating of, say, a few mils, which is exactly what You want when using lacquer-based sealers. In fact, the demonstrator mentions that if You have a problem with consistency, "just add a little acetone". He's assuming lacquer as a base, because You would NEVER add acetone to water to change the viscosity. So, given the in between sanding, etc. necessary to make this product perform up to its design, I'm using the old-fashioned rag method with appropriate gloves. I like old-fashioned; it may be slow, but it works every time it's tried. Hope this helps.... -- Curt S. Answered on 8/21/2012 by Anonymous

Q: Will this arrow sealer add a shiny finish because I really don't want that to happen. If it does add a shiny finnish are there any sealers that won't ? Asked on 2/29/2012 by Anonymous Know the answer? Answer this question 1 answer A: This is a satin finish but with more coats you put on the arrow the more of a glare it will produce. To dull this sealer more you can use 0000 steel wool and buff the arrow. Answered on 3/1/2012 by Art from 3Rivers Archery
Q: When using your clear shaft sealer is their another paint that I can use over the sealer as a crown dip if I don't want white? Interested in red and yellow crown dip. Asked on 12/19/2011 by Anonymous Know the answer? Answer this question 1 answer Q: What is the complete process for using the "white" sealer for out of the box wood shafts? Same for carbon and aluminum. I have 2 each clear and white bottles but not sure how to begin. Don't want to screw it up. I have your dip tanks with wood holder and clips. How many coats before I go to cresting. This is an activity where a video would sure help. I know the WB is new, but would like to know more. Is there an written article available? Thanks Tom Asked on 12/8/2011 by Tom from Woodland Park, CO Know the answer? Answer this question 1 answer A: Simple, shake bottles well, dump into big dip tube and let set over night so that all the bubbles come to the top. Make a drop line, get some cloths pins and lay news paper under drop line. Submerge shaft into the dip tub of sealer and then pull arrow out and let most of excess run off before hanging it on drop line. Let dry 1 day and then flip shafts over and repeat. It should only take 2-3 coats. I always crest last and then brush on a thin coat of clear over the cresting after it is dry in my cresting lathe. Answered on 12/8/2011 by Shawn from 3Rivers Archery
