Curious if someone uses this? Or would fletching glue work?

Who makes it and is it metalized? I'm always interested in trying something new.
The very best permanent glue I've tried so far is Easton's HIT Quick adhesive. They hold the internal inserts for my Axis arrows. The inserts don't touch the end of the shaft, just glued to the inside wall. Last year I blew a shot at my shop and the arrow hit a concrete wall and the arrow and the insert are still perfect.

Devcon makes it. I'm sure others do. Also called two-part epoxy. You can get it at Wal-Mart.

Goat Tuff for fletching and inserts on my carbon arrows. I've had problems with 2 part epoxy in the past with inserts coming loose - never had one come loose with goat tuff. With that said, you better get that insert seated QUICKLY with goat tuff as it dries almost instantly and has extremely short working time.
