Well I attempted my first sinew backing a little while back. I noticed that it started separating from the bow in a small section. I wasn't real happy there so I started picking at it and was able to peel the entire layer off in one piece. Now looking back, I likely did not degrease the bow thoroughly after using some oil for heat corrections. My question is if there is anyway to resuse this sinew that popped off, or should I start with fresh sinew? Could I just soak this sinew sheet in water to remove the old hide glue and re-lay it on the bow in bundles like it was originally laid? Any help would be great. Thanks
