Normally use Rocket max, but the latest purchase seems to have gone off rather quickly and beginning to congeal in the bottle .

What is the best cyno you guys have found .

Been having the same issue Ron although different brand, would also be interested in a better option.

I use Diall Superglue Glue from B&Q.
Sticks like the proverbial to a blanket.

 

[OldTaff]

I've had the same problems with the 'Roket' range, even keeping them in the fridge, so I'll give the Vitalbond one a go. Cheers for the heads-up

 

[Ronaldo]

Cheers Carl ,will give it a try.
Also is anyone using some sort of pre clean agent first ,such as mentholated spirit or specific agent for pre glueing

Only thing I do Ron, is remove any paint that may have gotten on the joint halves.

 

[Ronaldo]

Oh and while I'm at it .
I do a lot of metal models stuff, and use the Halfords primer but it tends to cold detail on these super little figures, so on the lookout for an airbrush applied primer for metal figures.

 

[housecarl]

I use Tamiya acrylics Ron.

 

[Ronaldo]

I use Tamiya also , wasn't aware they done a air brush primer

 

[housecarl]

Not sure if they do, I generally prime with a colour similar to my topcoat.

 

[OldTaff]

Ronaldo, the accelerator makes the glue set super-quick...be careful with it! There is a separate liquid for glue removal ( Loctite do one) Just in case....

Acetone releases the CA superglue found in hobby stores here (US) as "Super Glue Remover." The bigger, less expensive bottles of the stuff can be found as nail polish (varnish?) remover wherever the nail colors are sold.
Household paint stores sell it in gallon containers also as "Acetone."

Hardware stores also carry two part epoxy adhesives that are useful for metal figures with heavy bits.
