TIPS & TECHNIQUES



Here are some methods (adhesives) of attaching clear parts to your models.

  • Use future (which can be VERY strong sometimes)
  • Use Testors Clear Parts Cement, also very good.
  • Pacer Formula '560' entitled "Worlds Best Canopy Glue" is quite strong too, especially for a white glue.
  • Little tiny dots of CA on a little bare wire, or tooth pick to tack the canopy on strong, and white glue for filling and completion.
  • 5 minute Epoxy works well, but it smells strong and is difficult to control at times. Similar constancy to CA.
I have been using No. 4 on the list, as I think it is the strongest and most durable way.

Best Regards, and I hope your canopies go on swell!
