I really like using wraps and fletch tape + superglue gel. Or just superglue gel. I always use wraps because it makes re fletching easier.

There is a thread about issues using Fletch tite Plat on bare carbon. I know I was one. I went with Saunders NPV glue. Others liked the fletch tape, others various super glues. I would only use the Fletch Tite if you use wraps or cap dip with Fletch Lac paints. Prep is very important no matter what glue or tape you choose. I tend to go overboard on the bare shaft, I use acetone and 0000 steel wool. I also do this to remove the shaft makers info.

I spray my carbons with Bull Dog adhesive promoter before fletching. Use duco and never have a problem.

Locktite Ultra gel super glue.

I have used several. Bob Smith Industries is the best IMO. Can order online. Very strong and dries fast.

I always use wraps on my carbon arrows and use Platinum fletch tite for gluing.Holds great and haven't had any problem.Never like gluing to a carbon shaft.Using wraps makes them so much easier to redo later if needed.Carbons are tough arrows and chances are if you don't loose them you will be redoing them later.

I prefer wraps on my carbon shafts typically, but even gluing right to carbon i like using Goat Tough for fletching over anything else.

Platinum for me. Never lost a feather to it (bare carbon) but about 1 year inside and shelf life expires.

I like tape with a dab or gorilla super glue on the ends. Works great for me.
