insert glue???

Post by Turtleman »

I am polling to see what you guys use for your insert glue? Same as fletching glue, hot melt or other? Let me know because i have been using the same as fletching glue "fast fletch" and have had a few come out! What's your favorite?? :?:

I use the Gorilla instant glue with the blue cap for my inserts and fletching. Very pleased with how well it works for both tasks.

I have been using the AAE 2 part 24 hour cure epoxy with excellent results for the past few years.

Hot melt for me easier to remove when needed.

That's probably the same as the HIT adhesives that are in my experience the most secure way of attaching your inserts.
