Silicone glue - Clear Glue 45ml

Silicone clear glue, 45 ml

There is one place on a model where ordinary super glue does more harm than good: transparent parts. Its fumes condense on a cool surface and leave a white haze which can no longer be removed from the inner side of a canopy. Silicone clear glue does not have this problem. It dries slowly, releases no fumes, and once dry the joint stays transparent and flexible. Flexibility is the second advantage: the joint takes a little stress and does not crack, which comes in useful with parts that do not seat against each other exactly. The package has a volume of 45 ml.

Use

• Apply it in the tiniest amount with the tip of a toothpick or a wire, as any excess flows out onto a visible surface.
• Secure the part once it is in place, because the glue dries slowly and the joint can shift in the meantime.
• Wipe any excess away with a damp cloth while the glue is wet, as dried glue is difficult to remove.
• Do not use it on load-bearing joints, as a flexible joint will not hold a structure.
• Close the cap carefully after work, as dried glue clogs the neck.
• Let the joint cure properly, as flexible glue needs more time than glue for plastic.

Who it is for

It suits everyone who glues canopy glazing, headlights, lenses, transparent covers and photo-etched parts onto transparent surfaces. It also comes into its own when gluing materials that do not react with each other, that is, metal to plastic or film to resin. On the bench it is the glue for situations where the main requirement is the cleanness of the joint and not its strength.

Store it well closed and out of reach of children. Ventilate the room while working and avoid contact with the eyes.
