Title: carbon arrow burn ?
Post by: Biff on August 18, 2007, 11:25:00 PM
I shot a 3-d tournament today, had lots of older targets. By the end of the day, I had about 5 inches of black crud on my arrows. Heavy enough to scrape some off with my fingernail. Any solvents work to clean them? Don't really want to use steel wool. I had soaped the arrows previously, they stayed clean for 7-8 targets. Biff

rubbing alcohol is good....use a little armor all on your carbon shafts...works great and NOTHING sicks on your arrow...Hell...It'll probably increase your arrow speed with that stuff too!  :saywhat:

Alcohol, Oops, or Goo Gone all work to get the crude off.  Be careful with Oops, it will also take the paint of your arrows.  Not the carbon, just the writing.  I use it to take off the Beman MFX on my arrows.
