sinew cover

Could someone please tell what kind of transparent varnish or epoxy paint I should best use to cover and protect the sinew on the outer side of the bow?

I like the way it looks so I do not wish to cover it with bark or leather.

Hi Tawfiq,

I made one horn bow and finished it on both side's with wax.Not hard wax but furniture wax.
Hope it helps.

Thanks Yuna12 for the sugestion. I had waxed the horn and the birch cover on some bows but I had not thought of waxing the sinew directly...??
