Insert glue

What brand would recommend to use for my inserts? There is such a variety, it can be a bit confusing.

Insert glues are all basically the same.  They are super glue with an additive to keep from getting brittle.  There is a gorilla glue that has an additive that works the same way. 

The important thing is to prep the shaft properly.  Best adhesion is obtained by roughing up the inside of the shaft with a wire brush, and then cleaning the inside of the shaft with alcohol.  Put a line of glue on the insert, and then rotate the insert into place.  By rotating the insert you spread the glue evenly, and thinly.

are you using this for broadheads or target tips, I always use hot melt for all my bradheads, I can index the arrows better this way.

Hot melt? Is that hot glue gun glue? Special stuff, or can you get it anywhere.

All though I think this TEST is not done properly I still think it gives SOME incite to what the manufacturers are putting out there.
