I used duco on my tradgang wraps and it worked great.
I shot a deer and the feathered end stayed inside the deer. I took the arrow out and the feathers are still attatched firmly

Duco is not recomended for wraps. That is a first that I have hear that the duco worked well on wraps. Jim, What did you do different when you fletched them?

I use fletch tape on my wraps (granted they aren't store bought, but avery and 3m plotter vinyl bought of an auction site) and then run a bead of duco down the side as insurance. haven't had any problems and these arrows have probably 1000+ shots through them.
these were them brand new...but they look about the same (except for feather wear) now.

I use Duco on mine with no problems. Hold up fine on my target/stumpers as well as my hunting arrows. I believe I got the wraps from 3 Rivers. They are the white / black tiger striped wraps.
Suggest trying a couple and if they peel use a different glue. Like I said I use it on my target arrows which have been shot a great deal.

adam. I did nothing to them. After I stained the wood arrow I place the wrap on them and clear coat from the point up to the start of the wrap. I do not put clear coat over the wrap. The Duco worked great for me. No Kidding. I have made a dozen of them with your wraps and use 6 for hunting and 6 for target. Idunno>???
