Does anyone have any suggestions on cresting paint for aluminum arrows? Something that will not chip or flake. I am using Legacy Eastons and arrow wraps currently.

Azarrow, not to many choices. Fletch-lac paints from Bohning are made for the archery industry. I know folks that have used auto paints with sucess but they cost as much as Fletch-lac if you buy quility paint. I have seen the auto paints fade but the paint may have been lesser quility. I am sorry to say all the paints will chip if you hit some of those Az. rocks. Flaking is usually because the surface of the shaft was not prepared correctly or the paint is not for metal like aluminum. I also would not dip in the summer in the Phx. area unless you do it in airconditioned area. I have seen the paint "orange peel" on the shafts if the shafts were to hot from the sun. We found this out at my brother in laws house in Sun city.

Thanks for the info!

go to Lowe's and buy a quart of "Bullseye 123" it is used to cover stained ceilings. It sticks really well on aluminum. I paint a couple coats, then use common paint pens from X-mart over it. works fine

you could also try auto paint. i use spray on auto paint and it works just fine.

I have used regular Krylon spray pain and primer. I cleaned the shafts with denatured alcohol and real fine steel wool. I then mask off the areas I don't want painted and spray 1 light coat of primer, wait till dry and apply a second coat. If the primer looks good after drying I switch to paint, again aplying very light coats. Just remember to wait until each coat is dry before applying the next. Some of my arrows I've done this way have 2 coats of primer and 3 or 4 coats of paint.
I have not had any trouble having my fletching glue sticking to the painted area.
I hope that this helps you.
