On my first set of arrows ever (Aluminums) I didn't even use sand paper or clean it and the feathers have stayed on great, and I've put them through a lot!
I use Fletch-tite Platinum and it's great!

What Charlie Lamb said. I still use the comet method to get any dirt of the shafts. I donot need to scrub as much as we used to but I do not know where those shafts where before I got them. I have also used the shaft prep that Bohning sells. It works also.
Years ago some folks like Rube Powell of Chula Vista Ca. used to size the shafts with a thinned down coat of clear Fletch-Lac. His arrows were a little more money but the fletchs stayed on the shafts.
