Default RE: Arrow Treatment/Sealer

Grey,

I dont want to burst anybodys bubble using gasket lacquer but it aint stuff worth making arrows out of.

I have purchased a 5 gallon can, plus a few extra quarts of the stuff and have really put it to the test up here, both in my hands and in others.

In almost ALL circumstances, it cracks! The sheep hunters is where I notice it the most, but even a few of the caribou and local moose hunters who go home every evening show signs of cracking. It didnt matter if I built the arrow up or they did. The gasket lacquer I had or the GL they ordered, it all cracked. On some of my arrows right now I can peel the GL off like its a bannana peel.

Just some food for thought from a guy who puts everything to the test every fall! It just comes with the nature of the hunting I and my partners do, and gasket lacquer on atleast 6-8 different occasions has failed!
