Title: Help with chemicals (ambroid cement & liquid Ferr-L-Tite)
Post by: Tyler C. Moore on June 13, 2017, 08:49:00 AM

I bought a bunch of stuff from an old archery supplier. He has about 30 tubes of Ambroid, in tubes similar to Duco.

I'm just wondering if anyone used it, what it is compatible with fletching wise, and anything I should know ?

I also got a buch of Ferr-l-tite, but it is in liquid form in pint sized cans. I only have experience with the hard sticks currently made. Any help would be great. Thanks

I have been told that adhesives have shelf lives. Old stuff may not be as good as you might expect.

I called Bohning, they hadn't even heard of it. From reading he instructions it looks like an early version of Ferr-L-Tite. You dip your arrow in, light the end on fire until the solvent burns off, then jam your tip on. It's quite the process... and it STINKS
