Tethrd Predator CFX

That’s what I’m going with, just happened to have some and I’ve still got plenty of paint from doing my predator so I’ll give it a go.
I'm so genuinely curious as to why and how you have composite (cf and fiberglass) primer? Boat job previously?

Misread and/or misspoke, sorry. I used an auto primer for fiberglass which I understand is not the same as a composite. I lightly scuffed the surface of the platform in an effort to get better adherence. I applied 2 coats of it, time will tell if holds. I’m sure there are multiple opinions on that too. Haha

Just a fun project and experiment in a way I guess. Worst case it all falls or wears off and I’m back to what I started with.
 
time to go to an amsteel daisy chain.....?
Been thinking about that as an option, nothing to do with camo. Honestly just seems easier than the cam. I’m just comfortable with the cam and know I can get it tight to the tree every time so I haven’t switched.
 
What's in that third pic? All I see is a strap.

Nice camo job man. How did you do it? Seasponge?

Yeah, these Walmart specials, I cut them in even smaller chunks with scissors. I just use the catman outdoors method he has on YouTube, explains things well and is apparently idiot proof since I’ve been able to get it done twice now. Only thing I do differently is clean it with mineral oil first instead of brake or carb cleaner like he does.

Edit: mineral spirits, not mineral oil. Long day.

Nice. If I end up getting an EDP and not a Magnum 2.0, I figured I would try go hydro dip it. Might work, might not. Who knows.

I like the idea of this carbon fiber predator, but I need to lose some weight before trusting it to hold my big butt.
