I use 300 grit sand paper on the bottom of my bohning vanes. Just a few swipes and a bead of Goat Tuff. 10 seconds and you are done with the first vane.

Although Bohning does clean their vanes, it still does not remove the oils from packaging and handling. That's why I use the sandpaper and my vanes are rock solid.

Find what works best for you and use it. Making your own arrows Frank is a trial and error methodology. Best of Luck!
