Title: Removing fletching glue residue
Post by: Chris O on November 26, 2007, 12:02:00 AM
I'm in the process of re-fletching some gold tip traditional shafts and I need some advice on removing the glue residue. Can anyone recommend something that will take off the residue and that won't damage the shafts?  Thanks in advance.

use the goo b gone or oops and then wash with water after..might have to scrape just a little but it will be gone..I use a old 2 blade magnus head to scrape and it works great

I always just use and exacto knife. just be careful not to cut into the shaft. I then just wipe the excess with acetone.
