I've used Easton Quick Bond Fletching glue with great success. I tried tearing off a vane by hand when I was done and it wasn't going anywhere. Make sure you are wiping down/cleaning the vane and the shaft before gluing.

 

Loc-Tite ultra control gel....get it at Walmart et....

 

That's all use, works great.

^THIS^ I started using this and I haven't looked back. It works great!!

 

I use the fletch tite and have only had problems on the first ones I did. I can to the conclusion that I didn't let them set up enough. Now I make sure that I let them set up at least 24 hrs before I shoot them. No problems since.

 

right on ty for the feeds ill try crazy glue lol like the fact it lets me do something in the off season but a little frustrating shooting 5 arrows and done ill let them set a while ty kswthntr,i done 3 this evening 1 looks like it went thru a glue factory after i said to myself thou shalt stay locked tite to the shaft lmao anyways ty kindly for the info and reponses hagd and shoot em str8

 

Yup me too.

 

Make sure to get the control gel. It does not setup as fast and gives you a little more time.

 

used aae then I ran out and started using loc tite and it works just as good if not better

 

Dang skippy ... great stuff

 

More glue is not a good thing i have been fletching for few years now and have used the loc tite gorilla super glue fletch tite all kinds of glue its really in the prep they claim a lot of vanes have a promoter on them but I have found that cleaning the vane base helps a lot

 

yes ty i get that you have to clean the shaft as well as the fletching base,with acetone and fine sandpaper, ive done that to no avail,i let them set up for 48 hrs now and its time to try them, im a neat freak but if less is more than im outta that category lol ty for the posts everyone , seems like letting them set up was the ticket no probs with them now cept they are awful looking but if they stay attached im happy ,back to shooting

 

AAE FASTSET GEL, it's the real deal. I simply strip the old vanes with a stripper, steel wool it, and wipe with clean rag. I put nothing on the shaft. Secures the vane in seconds (seriously) and never a failure.

 

AAE Max Clean, use it according to the instructions. A q-tip with 91% isopropyl alcohol on base of vane & either AAE Max Bond or Loc Title Ultra Gel has been the answer for me.
