[]Ive read several articles on fletching arrows and most say not to use acetone to clean arrow before fletching. Most say to use denatured alcohol because the acetone residue left on the arrow can act upon the glue and soften it and sometimes the vanes will come off.
Agree,
That is the main reason I buff with steelwool after cleaning ,then wipe with a clean cloth.nothing but Carbon to contact.

yeah i use the quantam glue from bohning and i tried pulling one off last night and couldnt budge it. i shoot with wraps on my arrows and he said he had problems even on wraps. not going to say who the guy is or were he is from, but i dont trust him a whole lot. last year a friend of mine went to have him put on a new whisker bisquit rest he said there was no way to get it lined up right so he ended up selling him a drop away. i was in there a week later picking up arrows i had him do (before i started doing my own) and guy was wanting a new bow and asked if he should get a drop away on it and he said that drop aways were junk and would not sell them to anybody. i thought that was kind of funny.

Woody,
Great video! I've always dipped mine but I like this way much better. I'll definitely be doing my arrows this way for the fall.
Thanks again.
Hoyt

Voted Blazers, but don't actually have them on yet. Gonna get arrows re-fletched with them since I switched to a WB. The original fletchings are starting to get rather wavy.  |
