What is the best adhesive to glue feathers to aluminum arrows? I' ve heard good things about AAE Fast Set Gel, but AAE gel is made more for vanes, correct? Does AAE Fast Set Gel also work well with feathers? What type of fast bonding adhesive works best with feathers?

I have fletched a lot of aluminum, wood, and glass arrows, and have experimented with various types (composition) of fletching cement. For ease of use, time to adjust, and durability, I personally found that " Bohning FLETCH-TITE" is still the best for me.
A good wipe down with some acetone or tet to clean and etch the shaft, and I believe you will be pleased with the results.
