-
Gather all supplies needed to refletch the arrow.
-
Be sure the fletching jig is the correct jig for the amount of vanes on the arrow. The fletching jig in the following images is a three vane fletching jig.
-
Lay down one of your paper towels where you plan to work.
-
-
-
Use a pocket knife to scrape off the broken vane and glue.
-
Be sure to hold the blade away from you, at a 45 degree angle from the arrow.
-
Periodically check the arrow, by rubbing your finger on the surface of the arrow, to see if all the glue has been removed.
-
If all the glue has been removed the arrow will be smooth. If the glue hasn't been removed completely, your finger will feel small raises on the arrow.

-
Apply acetone to a paper towel and rub it on the area where the vane was removed.
-
Be sure the paper towel is sufficiently soaked with acetone. If the acetone isn't rubbed on enough, the grease from your finger will cause the new vane to fall off.
-
Be sure not to touch that part of the arrow you just cleaned for the rest of the process.

-
The supplies needed for this step are the following. The clamp, new vane, acetone, paper towel, q-tip, and fletching glue.
-
Be sure to have all supplies close at hand.
-
Glue dries fast, so you need to work at a quicker than normal pace. Don't work so fast that you mess up, but try to work swiftly when working with the fletching glue.

-
After the vane has finished drying; check to see if the vane is on correctly and straight. If so, the vane was properly replaced. If not, refer back to step 1 and start over.
-
If the vane is fixed, you may apply a small amount of acetone onto another q-tip and wipe off any excessive glue. Be sure not to wipe the new arrow vane.
