I have been using Du Co for the front and rear of my fletchings because it has no air bubbles and holds well but can't find it any where.  

What do you use?...I have have purchased E-3000 and a couple others but they have air bubbles in them and look bad.  Tks.
I am not judged by the number of times I fail, but by the number of times I succeed. And the number of times I succeed is in direct proportion to the number of times I can fail and keep trying.

I still use Duco. Wal-mart doesn't carry it any more so I just buy it at the hardware store.

fletch tape and wraps. The fletch sticks to the wrap without any problems then a drop of fletchtite at both ends of the feather.....stabow

Tks for all the help guys.  I really appreciate it.

I used Duco - no complaints.  Still have some wood arrows I made using duco on the feathers 45 years ago, and everything is still holding up just fine.

Wally World has a generic cement that smells a LOT like fletch tite. It comes in a black and yellow bottle for like a buck. It has held up well so far on my carbons.

I wipe the carbons down with acetone and then use fletch tape with a dab of crazy glue at each end of the feather. I've missed and shot through the carpet hanging behind my target too many times to count. Even punched through a metal garbage can with one. Not a lost feather.
