For those who are having trouble getting your feathers to stick i have a suggestion. It matters what kind of white spray paint you use. I use Rust-oleum white Lacquer. It has to be Lacquer, no enamel or anything else. i HAve used fleetch-tite, goat tuff, and i have never, and i mean never had a feather come off. Not even after shooting through my target. Let me know if this helps. BTW you can get the paint at wally world for about 3 dollars.
