Default RE: cresting your arrows with....

Jesse: I too imagine you're thinking about crown dipping with spray paint. If this is the case, there are a number of people who use this method. I normally use gasket lacquer to seal my shafts so if you're using an enamel spray paint, you're supposed to spray paint over the gasket lacquer and then you can cover with polyurethane. However, I recently spoke with someone that told me they've been using gasket lacquer with spray paint underneath. I was told he sprays the crown first with the basic cheap spray paint found at WalMart and then coats with the desired amount of gasket lacquer, all with no problems. I'm probably going to try a test arrow next week using this method and I'll report back with the results. I know others have tried similar methods with the spray paint underneath the gasket lacquer only to find the lacquer won't adhere to the paint. We'll see!
