AP Glue: Plastic Glue

From Army Painter:

The Army Painter Plastic Glue is the perfect tool when assembling your plastic miniature.

Most miniatures and models come in sprues and have to be assembled. This means that you will need to glue them together. With The Army Painter Plastic Glue, you can build miniature models in no time while also minimising the risk of unsightly seams or gaps between joined pieces.

Plastic glue – or polystyrene cement – differs from other types of glue as it doesn’t merely stick the two pieces together; it actually melts the plastic. When the plastic glue is applied, the chemical components of the glue slightly melt the plastic surface and as the glue cures, the two pieces fuse together, creating a much stronger bond than when using e.g., superglue.

The Army Painter Plastic Glue allows for precise and controlled application due to the smart applicator tip combined with the thin-flowing consistency of the Plastic Glue. This is invaluable when assembling intricate model components, ensuring that the glue is only applied where it is actually needed.

Mess free, quick-setting, and only working on plastic, it is easy to use and won’t adhere to your skin. This makes it a great tool for hobbyists of all levels.
