I would have to agree on the tape. I've been using it for several years now and have never had one come off. Only glue I use, is a little dab of fletch tite on each end  of my fletch.

Super glue on all wraps. Tried tape twice and its not for me.

I've used Cavalier FastSet Gel and it works fine. Most of the time I use Fletch Tite Platinum. Never had a feather come off a wrapped arrow.

Fletch-tite Platinum with Onestringers wrap. I have been using them since he has beeen selling them. A friend used the tape and left his arrows in his truck. From the heat his feathers were coming off. Not with the Fletch-tite Platinum.

Lots of folks like tape and I have used BUT the feathers will role over to the side if they are in the hot sun long.  I went back to glue and besides if Platinum glue is good for the ends of the feather it should be good for the rest of it. IMHO

Superglue is all I use on wraps.  Gorilla Glue Impact Tough formula (blue cap), Loc-tite brand, Pine Ridge Instant Archery glue, Goat-Tuff, all are superglues and have worked great for me. I do use Platinum on the ends of the feathers because its thicker.  

As far as tape goes, never used it, heard and read too many unhappy stories about its failures. Superglue has never let me down not even one time in probably 10 dozen arrows the last 3 years.

I agree wholeheartedly with Craig's comment above.
There really is more than one way to skin a cat, isn't there.

Superglue can glue your helmet to the ceiling. It can glue your feathers to a shaft also.

Once I realized goat tuff was CA glue, I went to using the gorilla glue (blue cap) as well. Its also pretty cheap and they sell it at walmart (very cheap). I think i've been in love with cyanoacrylate since my R/C modeling days when I used ZAP CA glue which is specially formulated for balsa wood.
