Tried it this morning with some old carbons. Looks really good, easy to do, only added 1.3 grains(it was windy and i think i got more paint on than needed). I havnt shot them or fletched them yet to see how the glue affects the paint, but other than that its working so far.

if you open up internet explorer it will download. i tried it on my browser - netscape - and it wouldn't work. i minimized it and opened ie off the desktop and it got it. took a while since i'm on dial up though, but very cool.

MartinDK, the paint is actually laquer.
I have to assume that's the best kind to use.
Thanks Bulzeye! Giving it a try tomorrow.

Has anybody seen the Bohning Arrow Building DVD?? Anything usefull in it?

Yeah guys it does work, i sprayed four arrows a couple months ago for shooting at groundhogs. They shoot very close to my regular arrows. A few chip marks but the spraypaint is staying on really well.

That is great I will try it.I make my own wraps from a lable machine that prints out up to 12 in wide letters,so that works out fine but does add weight.

Hey guys, does anybody do arrow dipping?
What kind of paint, laquer, stuff is used in that process?
The dipped arrows I've seen hold up pretty well, and I'm wondering if this is the same stuff in a spray form, or if it is different.

Well, yes, sort of. The paint used for dipping is a lacquer I believe. I am not positive though. It is just applied a lot more thicker because of them being dipped.

www.eders.com has an arrow cresting kit which includes paints, brushes, dip tubes, and an electric motor to spin the arrows. Everything you need.
