TamiyaExtra Thin Liquid Cement Glue with Applicator Brush - 40ml Bottle - 87038

I am an avid collector and builder of Gunpla kits and I do occasionally break a piece. The most annoying one is when you accidently break the v-fin of Gundam or other small pieces.. that just happened with a model I've been spending alot of time on. Decided to give this a go, and thank goodness for Tamiya cement. V-fin good as new.The brush is very thin and allows for precise application, while the substance itself is quite strong and dries quickly. Once dried you can add another coat of cement around the break to strengthen it up.

The Tamiya Extra Thin Cement 40ml is widely renowned throughout the world as the best product for gluing together plastic model kits made from polystyrene plastic. The extra thin formula allows modelers to glue small pieces with pinpoint accuracy and finesse, thanks to the fine brush applicator included. This glue is perfect for creating seamless joins without any mess or bulky residue.Using this glue is definitely a learning curve, so make sure you don’t accidentally use it on the wrong material, like I did when I tried using it on the wrong material, let's just say it wasn't designed for anything other than plastic, and I ended up with an interesting, albeit unsuccessful, experiment. Lesson learned!The glue's capillary action lets it flow effortlessly between tightly matched parts, creating an almost invisible bond and setting faster than Tamiya's standard cement. It’s ideal for anyone looking to take their model building to the next level, offering precision, reliability, and a professional finish.Please note: this cement should be used in a well-ventilated area, and it is highly flammable, so avoid using it near any naked flames. Close the cap immediately and securely after use to prevent evaporation. Just remember to keep those fingers out of the way, and you'll be set for success!

A must for fine detail models.Quick setting just make sure you clean any paint back to the plastic before application.

I liked the brush which makes delicate application easier and cleaner with less excess but as it’s the first time of buying anything like this I have no comparison.After using for a while I found that it doesn’t stick well so had to buy different glue.

If you ask almost any group of hobbyists about plastic glue, you'll probably get recommended this stuff for good reason. It's not as bad for fumes as some of the stronger stuff, and it won't melt details too badly if a little goes astray, but it will make a strong bond in seconds, and can even be used to smooth out joins and the like. It comes in a sturdy little glass pot that's thankfully hard to knock over, and with a little brush in the cap that makes it easy to apply. Obviously, try not to breathe in the fumes too much, and use it somewhere with decent ventilation if you can, or it may start to irritate your eyes and sinuses. If you get a bit on your hands, go wash them. Basically, be sensible and you'll be fine!One pot will probably last most people years; I've used mine for the entire Horus Heresy Age of Darkness box (yes, including the big Spartan tank), plus a rhino and three jetbikes, the entire 40k Leviathan box, a box of Hellblasters and a box of Intercessors, several Underworlds Warbands, a vanguard box of Daughters of Khaine, other random stuff and I'm still only just over halfway through it! So you'll almost certainly get your money's worth!

My son swears by this for his Warhammer and Bolt Action miniatures. Not cost effective though!

Great service, delivered two days before expected and in perfect condition.

Tamiya Extra Thin Cement is hands down the best plastic glue I’ve used. The ultra-thin formula flows perfectly into seams and joints by capillary action, giving you super clean and precise bonds without any mess.The included applicator brush in the cap is small and accurate, which makes it easy to apply just the right amount, even in tight spots. It’s ideal for assembling scale models, Gundams, Warhammer kits, and anything polystyrene-based.It slightly melts the plastic to fuse pieces together, resulting in a strong bond that looks seamless once set. Dries quickly and doesn’t leave a glossy residue if you’re careful.If you're serious about model making, this is a must-have in your toolkit. Just remember — it's not a gap filler, it’s for precision bonding.
