I use clear fingernail polish on mine. It works well on unwaxed thread and ok on waxed thread. I do however think i might try the super glue for comparisson.

I just use standard PVA glue, the white stuff. It is not rated as water proof but it takes more than a little dampness to soften it and if your arrows have got that wet and stayed that way for long enough to effect the glue then you have more troubles than a bit of sticky glue on your bindings.

I'm sure other glues work well.  The thing I like about super glue is the fact that it "builds" quickly to form a thick hard coat that can be easily smoothed by light sanding.     Ron
