When applying Black Magic Tire Wet to your feathers, do not saturate the feathers, just a misting will give best results. Remember also, to tap the arrow so as to remove excess Tire Wet from the feathers…If you overdose your feathers, they may become excessively stiff and result in inadequateness performance……….

Black Magic Tire Wet leaves no odor, to my nose. I figure if a deer can smell the feather treatment, it can smell me…Also, there is no sticky residue…
I have tried just about all the different types of feather waterproofing, and this works as good as any of them….
Try it on one arrow to see if it up to your satisfaction, if not……it leaves a nice shine on your tires.

A good feather waterproofer is Black Magic Tire Wet…It is cheap and easy…A spray bottle is around $3 at Walmart and will last a lifetime…Just spray your fletching, shake off excess and let them dry for a couple of hours…works great.
