Title: Rubber Based foam safe Glue from HK. CLEAR FOAM GLUE Post by: sundaram on December 12, 2011, 11:59:15 AM http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=17535
I found this glue very good for all type of foam. The bond which it makes is not brittle and strong. Unlike CA which tends to crack open come loose on hard impacts. this glue is very strong and does not crack. Of late I have been using this glue for all my foam build. Supplemented with CA only for places wherever instant bond requirement is there. However only down side is its performance in cold climate is not satisfactory since it is based on solvent, due to retarded evaporation of solvent, it tends to discharge lumpy from the tube and make thick layer of glue. Further it takes longer to get tacky before you can join the glued joints. To obviate it I have been placing the glue tube in warm water for some time to raise the temp of the glue to make it thin on discharge for better application and for faster evaporation of solvent for the glued surface to become tacky. At approximately $3 it is a amazing buy. Title: Re: Rubber Based foam safe Glue from HK. CLEAR FOAM GLUE Post by: Mooni on December 12, 2011, 01:40:28 PM isn't there some Indian alternative??

Title: Re: Rubber Based foam safe Glue from HK. CLEAR FOAM GLUE Post by: sundaram on December 12, 2011, 02:40:06 PM This what I came across in our forum long time back I have been trying to search for the same brand since then without success.
People......... try out stag brand(or 3m or silverbond etc) rubber paste available in hardware stores -it is the paste used for shoe repairs, paste seat covers and mend cycle punctures, costs less than rs 100 per litre and is totally foam safe(epp, depron, eps, xpp, xps, biofoam). you got to apply paste to both surfaces, allow to dry for close to 5 mins and then bond together with little pressure and u have a joint for a lifetime but making alterations is next to impossible :) This here is my latest foamie, a Redbull Edge 540 Profile made of epp, stuck with stag brand rubber paste. Seems like it aint eaten yet! Do try it out........... I'm sure u'd luv it for its price This Stag Brand is supposedly a foam safe Rubber based Glue. Title: Re: Rubber Based foam safe Glue from HK.
