Removing paint from arrows

Post by Sloppy Does »

Is it ok to use Goof off to remove the zombie logo on arrows? The paint melts and becomes rough when I shoot my Rinehart target so I had some goof off paint remover in a spray can and it took it off very easily but before I do more I wanted to make sure that I wasn't making the arrows weak or something.

Use acetone and clean rags, works great.

Agreed. I find paper towel to work better than rags.
