You can also get bright colors from Woodburst brand wood stains and analine stains.
Analine stains come in three versions: water soluable, oil, and alcohol. Use the water for ease of use and the best UV resistance.
Valley Traditional Archery has a good selection of analine stains and so do some specialty woodworking catalogs. Lowe's and Home Depot will give you a blank look if you ask for them there. For that matter, Home Depot will give you a blank look if you ask where the 2 x 4's are.
This image shows some arrows I did with the Woodburst stain:
