Tape here also but just about any glue used for feathers should work on a wrap.

I used fletchtite platinum on my arrows with wraps and never had an issue on Aluniumn but cann't see why it matters on carbon's as long as a wrap is used...Besides that's what I will use on my next batch that I'm working on now...

Tried all the others and now I only use superglue type glues. I like Pine Ridge Instant Arrow Glue the best, sets up quick.  Gorilla Glue with the blue cap works good too but sets a little slower. I do use some Fletch-Tite platinum on either end of the feather when I'm done though.

The only glue you'd have to worry about would be Duco. It's not recommended for use on wraps... but I don't know why.

Use fletch tape and a drop of fletch tight on the ends(the tape holds well and when you need to repair feathers you can cut the glue and peel the tape off for a cleaner repair)   :archer2:
