I use this over wraps and/or clear wraps (double dogs) and have NO problems with feather separation.

Fletchtite outlast my feathers every time.

Good old super glue. Any kind, if one controls the flow on the quill. I prefer liquid CA and have tried many brands. They've all worked for me on carbon and wood. (And fingers)

Cheers! Pat.

Fletch tite platinum on shafts I have dipped and I use the gorilla super glue in with the blue cap on bare shafts or on wraps, just need to be careful with the super glues and not use too much.

Too many bows to list, and so many more I want to try!  Keep the wind in your face, and your broadheads sharp.

Started using the tape about 6 months ago, and i'm impressed. No loose fletchings yet. My clamps don't get glue buildup anymore, and I don't have to wait for glue to set on one feather before moving to the next. Still add a dab of duco to the front and rear of the feather for insurance.

Before that, I was using Goat Tuff, never had any luck with Platinum.

I use Gorilla super glue on all my fletchings sets in 60 seconds and holds the best

I have been using the tape on my GT shafts for many years and haven't had one come off yet.  I will not go back to glue, every time I do, the tube had dried out and another trip to the store - and more $$$ and wasted glue.  Give it a try, you will like it.

Clean with acetone, fletch with super glue gel.
God is good, all the time!!!

rather than the gel, I use the gap filling type from bob smith industries. I buy the two ounce bottles for less than $10. Of course I go through about 1/2 gallon of the stuff every year in my shop so I always have it on hand. Works great on everything.
