i'm changing over my acc's to install blazers, any special tools needed to remove the old glue off the arrow? i would hate to start peeling away the carbon layer. i see various catalogs sell a tool for removing fletch for about $24, but it says nothing about carbon arrows.

SORRY GUYS, DID MY HOMEWORK AND FOUND THE SOLUTION

Ridge Runner Gunner

So what was the solution u used, i have the same problem and want to start over and put new ones on, anyone else have any ideas?

Rick James

I use a dull swiss army knife. I scrape the majority off with that (dull so as to not cut into the carbon) and then soak a paper towel w/ pure acetone. I rub the shaft with the acetone which dissolves quite a bit of the leftover glue, and then scrape again anything that is left. Then I rub again with the acetone soaked paper towel and let dry. Repeat as necessary.

ridgerunnergunner,
used the same concept as rick james except i used goo be gone from home depot,and i to dulled the blade of a old pocket knive and it worked perfectly!
with a little patience i was able to strip off old fletching and clean off the glue in around 30 min.for six arrows.

bumkin,

You might want to consider using wraps before putting the blazers on. I can't believe how much easier it has been for me since I put the wraps on.
