Ive been experimenting with scratch building and I have noticed I get alot of CA build up in tight spaces like in between the wires on this jammer unit I built. (White arrow)
Also this has caused smaller details like buttons and switches to become unidentifiable and sloppy looking(Yellow arrow)
What is the remedy for this? I have tried using less CA but then it doesnt hold. After that, I drilled small holes for the wires and used a minimal amount of CA and they still didnt hold. I finally used the holes and as much CA as needed to bond. As soon as it was set enough to let it go I quickly dabbed off the all of the excess I could.
As you can see the glue still built up and clogged up areas that should be open.
I have seen some crisp and neat scratch building here and on other sites so I know there is a way to do this witout looking sloppy like the picture above.
Please, someone guide me.
