I use Comet on all of my shafts. Wipe with a clean paper towel. Fletch with Max Bond and AAE Max hunter vanes. NEVER lost one. I use the same method for target. We shot an arrow thru a target in Redding. I reached thru with a leatherman, grabbed the X-10 by the AAE vane with the pliers and pulled. My wife kept shooting the arrow. No damage to the vane or arrow.
 I run a Qtip down the sides of my vanes after fletching. I do a dozen arrows in 20 minutes. You can shoot them immediately and pull the arrows by the vanes. They DO NOT COME OFF ever..Just saying

I was told with the spray to dilute it 1:3 though I have used it straight with no problems.  Just really conscious to rinse extremely well.  I found an old note from Goat Tuff that said 1 ounce to two cups of water with the concentrate.

He asked, Do you ever give a short simple answer?  I replied, "Nope."
