Pine Ridge, Bohning Quantum XT, and super glue. Quantum XT and Pine Ridge are my favorite....

With the Platinum I've found you need to make sure the whole vane base has glue on it before attaching and make sure you hold for 10-15 sec.

Also, make sure to use acetone on the shafts before gluing. It should help bond better.

Check for rest contact if you are using anything but a WB.

I also use Goat Tuff and since it's basically super glue the stuff bonds pretty much right away.

90% of the fletching I do is on wraps. I always use Fletchtite Platinum and it has performed flawless for me;)

I've tried all the "archery" super glues I could find, and this has turned out to be the best for me:

AAE Fastset Gel. It stays where you put it and bonds in a few seconds.
It works great for me.

I use AAE Fastset Gel. Works great. After I attach my Blazer vane to the arrow I count to ten, it's there for good

Loctite superglue contact gel. It stays where you put it, bonds quickly, and is pretty cheap.

Saunders Arrow Mate. Old school stuff. Never had a problem with it and won't switch unless they quit making it.

Bohning Quantum XT and Gold Tip glue are fantastic the Gold Tip applicator bottle is the best because it stay clog free.

I used Goat Tuff for 3 or 4 years. It is great stuff. I did have to throw quite a bit away because of it drying up in the bottle. I saw Jay Gregory on the Wild Outdoors tip section show that he uses Loc Tite Super glue. I gave it a try and have been using it ever since. I can buy 3 or 4 bottles of it at Wal mart for what I paid for 1 Goat Tuff and it works just as good, plus I have never had it dry up in the bottle.

I have used it all and prefer the Platinum.It doesn't get brittle over time like super glue type glue.


It is also cheaper and doesn't dry out like others.You may have to clean the tip out from time to time but that is it.


You apparently are having a cleaning,or prep problem if it isn't sticking for you.

My thoughts exactly;)Hey we live fairly close. I'm only about 50 miles from Henderson:)

I use Goat tuff, great stuff. But with any glue just make sure that you clean the shaft and the vane base before gluing.

Goat Tuff

If you make a mistake though...you are screwed. That stuff bonds so strongly, it makes you wish you used a cheaper brand.

That's why I use the Fletchtite Platinum more.
