Just curious, what do you guys use when gluing plastic glass back into a diecast build? I have used damn near everything......currently using my wifes craft glue, E6000 or something like that. Tried gorilla glue & it fogged up all the glass. (that was weird)

Yep. That way if you jack it up, it's eaily fixable.

Side note, the fog from superglue can be cleared up decently using Future.

i use regular Elmer's school glue just like Brandon Miller suggested. you will have to give it time to cure though but at least you have time play w/ the window before its harden

lol glue?,shhhh, this is between us, but I clear tape the windows in on my NASCAR builds
But for clear parts , I have switched to BSI's Foam Safe CA glue, its super glue for clear plastic, I also have Canopy glue as well but stopped using it.

Wow.........interesting stuff. Glad I asked. You know, about the window fogging thing, I figured out the future wax deal pretty quick. I was freaking out & threw the first thing at it I could find. Scared the hell outa me.

(that was weird) Loctite G02 is all I use it drys crystal clear and sticks great.... get it at Wal-Mart I use to use that stuff, but stopped for a couple of reasons 1. I had to always take the cap off and remove all the dried up glue before I could use it again , no matter what I did, I could not get it to stop that, major pain in the ass points 2. It yellows , I noticed that on some builds after a few years it yellow, not a lot , but just enough that it casted a yellow tint on the clear parts on the area where the glue was. Canopy glue is good too, I use that as well. But really , lately, its been basic super glue, yep, I am living dangerous over here. You get like one shot at getting it right. |
