Default super glue as fletch adhesive?

I have 3 carbon arrows that each have one feather coming loose on the head end, about an inch worth. The balance is still in place, so it would be easy to apply an adhesive and press them back in their proper place. Problem is, I have no archery specific adhesive, and no where to get any.

Can I use superglue gel to accomplish this task? I seem to recall someone mentioning this not to long ago.

The super glue gel does work great, but is a bit of a pain to clean off when refletching. I prefer Fletch-Tite for my normal gluing.

I use Bondini gel from either Kmart or Walmart all the time. In fact for the last 3 years haven't used anything else.
