Any of the cyanoacrylates are da bomb! I use Pine Ridge or Bohning Quantum XT, but since you're wrapping yours, regular ole super glue will work.

I found Platinum Fletch Tite works great with your scenario... and I'm about to start using Loc-Tite's gels based upon the recommendation of several great technicians on here.

Goat tuff glue does the job for me - every time and lasts a long time.

Use the Loc Tite super glue, either the gel or regular. I like the gel myself. This stuff is great. Works just as good as the Goat Tuff and Pine Ridge ( and I have used both) and at a fraction of the cost.

I use the goat tuff it is the best fletching glue I have used I would not recamend the super glue of in kind water can brake it down. I fletched six arrows for a 3-D shoot one time and it sprinkled a little and every arrow I shoot the vanes came off. I suggest the goat tuff.
