It is essential that you wax your Genesis® bow’s strings and cables in order to extend the life of the bow and protect its condition. The wax helps protect against friction from the environment, adds lubrication, and helps keep dirt and debris from getting inside the strings and cables. Waxing your bow is relatively easy, you just need to follow some simple steps.

Preparing to Wax the Bow
- Start by removing all accessories from the bow, such as stabilizers, sights, quivers, and accessories.
- Next, locate the bowstring and cable. Use a bow press or string clamps to position the bowstring and cable for waxing.
- Once the bowstring and cable are in the proper position, use a stiff-bristled brush to lightly scrub the cables and strings and remove any dirt, grime, or residue.
Applying the Wax
- Don’t use any wax other than the wax specified by the manufacturer. This is crucial for maintaining the condition and performance of the bow.
- Once you’ve gathered the proper wax for your bow, run a thin layer of the product along the entire length of your bowstring and cable.
- Once you’ve applied the wax, use a clean cloth to buff the areas you waxed. Make sure the cloth is soft and free of anything that could damage your bowstring and cable.
Completing the Waxing Process
- Once you’ve applied the wax and buffed the strings and cable, you should test shoot the bow to ensure it is still in proper working condition after waxing.
- If the bow is shooting correctly, replace any accessories you had removed earlier (stabilizers, sights, quivers, etc.).
- Finally, your Genesis® bow is waxed and ready to use!
Waxing your Genesis® bow’s string and cable is essential for proper maintenance and to help extend its life. Follow these steps to ensure proper waxing and maintain a healthy and well-working bow. With a proper wax job, your bow should stay in proper condition for years.
