Fletch tape is the only thing I will use on my feathers. I don't even dab glue on either the front or back and have pulled arrows through targets and straw bales without having the fletch come even a little unstuck. Fletch tape is easier to use than glue. With glue, I am trying to get a small,even bead down the center of the vane so that a whole bunch of glue doesn't come squishing out the sides of the vane. The fletch tape just lays down right on the feather. No fuss, no muss.

I use respirator wipes if I am in a bind in the field and they are just rubbing alcohol. At home I use denatured alcohol I feel it is less harsh on my hands and the arrows.
