I always used Bohning Fletch Tite because I always used Bohning products when crown dipping. Fletch tite worked best for me on all arrow materials, even if they weren't crown dipped.

Super-glue  -- One quick drop, push it nock on----End of story. No waiting, no mess.  I do my heads w/it also.  No prob. changing heads--just heat them up.

Duco. It doesn't melt the nock, it *fuses* the nock.
Seriously, it does get into the nock's plastic but that's how it glues it to the arrow.

Are you talkin' wood or aluminum arrows? I always liked Fletchtite for aluminum, but anymore I don't use any glue. I just push it on and give it a twist to tighten it and that's it. It works good and is even a little hard to pull off. Plus, I can still adjust my nock position by turning it or I can replace it if I don't like the color, size, or whatever.

They all remove some of the color. Use a little less and wipe the bottom clean soon are you have it on.

I use Goat Tuff.  The stuff works great on any shaft material!!
