Not just alcohol though. Regular rubbing alcohol has oil in it. Use denatured or 91% ispropyl. If you are doing vanes then it is waise to clean the gluing surface of them as well.

depends on which vanes and adhesive you use
If you are using AAE fastset gel comet and water is what is recommended
other wise Cutex Finger nail polish acetone works very well and also Denatured alcohol.

If you are using carbons then you also need to rough up the arrows surface with a fine grade sandpaper before cleaning it with the alcohol. This gives the fletching a better surface to adhere to.

You could also use some of the cresting wraps. It really makes for a nice looking arrow.
On a similar note, where do you guys find the fletching tape that soem people use to put feathers on with?
