Foam Tac 2oz

Foam Tac 2oz

Latest updated version of this product. Foam-safe glue bonds Depron, EPS, EPP, XPS, EPO, and many other types of foam as well as carbon fiber and wood.

Excellent for building or repairing RC planes.
Does not attack, melt or dissolve foams but holds quickly and cleanly.
Remains flexible and clear once dry, never brittle. Super strong bond is like welding the foam together.
Requires much less glue for a permanent bond than a cyanoacrylate- based glue. Won't glue fingers together.

HELPFUL HINTS
ALWAYS test on scrap materials first to ensure compatibility.
Surfaces must be clean, dry, and free of dust and grease.
Spread glue evenly on both sides of material to be bonded.
Allow surfaces to air dry for 10-20 minutes depending upon size of area being glued.
Press surfaces firmly together.
Maximum bond is achieved within 24 hours or less.
Always replace the flat white cap after each use to prevent product evaporation.
Do not use near any open flame or ignition source. Avoid prolonged breather of vapors. Keep out of reach of children.

This is a clear contact style adhesive. Apply glue to part, touch parts together several times making glue strings/webs if you can. Press parts firnly together. Flying strength is acheived in most. Most joints (depending on size) are flyable in 10 to 20 minutes. Strength of joint continues to improve for 24 hours.

Foam-Cure(TM)

Foam-Cure(TM)

FOAM-CURE(TM) is a silicone based adhesive that works very well on EPP and EPO foams. It is crystal clear and cures to a more flexible consistency than CA. It is, however, not instant bonding like CA and there is no accelerator to speed it's curing. To obtain a faster initial bond when bonding two pieces, FOAM-CURE(TM) can be applied to one piece and after the two are joined, they can then be pulled apart. After letting it air dry for about ten minutes, FOAM-CURE(TM) will act like a contact cement when the parts are rejoined, resulting in enough tack strength to allow the next steps of assembly. Full strength is reached in 10-12 hours. FOAM-CURE(TM) works with all foams and will actually bond most other materials. It will bond wood and plastic to foam and is a good canopy glue. FOAM-CURE(TM) does not, however, cure flexible enough to act as a hinge for aircraft control surfaces. Its limitations occur when bonding large areas of two non-porous materials. FOAM-CURE(TM) requires exposure to air for drying. If one tried to bond, for example, a half-dollar coin to glass, over 90% of the adhesive would never cure, since the solvent it contains would have nowhere to evaporate. A small amount of denatured alcohol can be mixed into the Foam-Cure to make it thinner.

Works Best On:
 
  • EPP Foam
  • EOP Foam
  • Clear Canopy
  • Paper and Crafts 

DIRECTIONS:

Cut off tip of nozzle. Apply to one part before joining. Use tape to hold parts in place during cure. For faster curing, pull the joint apart and let Foam-Cure(TM) air dry for 5-10 min before rejoining the parts. This results in enough tack strength to allow the next steps of assembly. Full cure takes 10-12 hours. Foam-Cure(TM) works on all foams, especially on EPP and EPO, and will bond a porous surface to non-porous materials. Foam-Cure(TM) is also an excellent glue for clear canopies, and will also bond paper. If needed, denatured alcohol can be used to thin or clean up uncured Foam-Cure(TM). Replace cap after use.

PARBOND 5 Minute 4 Ounce Epoxy

PARBOND 5 Minute 4 Ounce Epoxy

High Quality 5 Minute Epoxy. Use epoxy where a strong non-brittle bond is required. Firewalls, landing gear blocks, wing hold down bolt blocks, fuel proofing and on sensitive materials like foam. 5 minute epoxy is best for quick repairs and new model construction where lots of working time is not required.

Hint! If you mix your epoxy on a flexible surface, like a paper plate you can go back to the mixture a week later and flex it. If it cracks easily then your not getting the portions mixed properly or failing to mix them enough. A good epoxy joint is very strong yet somewhat flexible. If the puddle of glue cracks it means it is hard like glass and not giving you the best qualities of the glue. Using a paper plate flex test is a good way to follow your own progress and improve your glue mixing skills.

Firewalls, landing gear blocks, wing hold down bolt blocks, fuel proofing and on sensitive materials like foam. 30 minute epoxy is best for quick repairs and new model construction where lots of working time is required. Also excellent for wetting out small fiber glass sections.

Hint! Need your joint to cure a little faster? Take a covering heat shrink gun to the joint and warm it up. Be carefull, the heat will at first cause the epoxy to become thinner, it might run out of the joint and make a mess. Also, be warned! A little heat goes a long way and can cause your glue to dry faster than you had planned. You can also preheat the glue before applying to the parts or pre heat the parts.

Foam Tack Glue by Woodland Scenics

Foam Tack Glue by Woodland Scenics

Specially formulated for foam and also effective on wood, cork and Homasote board. Foam Tack Glue is high-tack, non-toxic and water soluble. It dries clear and flexible. Use as a contact cement whenever bonding two large surfaces. 12 fl oz (354mL).

Instructions: Working time 15 minutes, cover surface to be glued, smooth surface adhesion may be improved by sanding before gluing. Permanent Adhesion: Apply glue evenly over both contact surfaces. Let dry until clear, then press surfaces together (max working time, 1 hour). Glue bonds instantly.

We list this as a PVA because that it what it seems like from our senses. I am not certain on that classification. Some use it for foamy construction and thus our main thought in carrying this product.

Mercury MH16 Accelerator 2 OZ

Mercury MH16 Accelerator 2 OZ

DESCRIPTION: Mercury MH16 is a General Activator accellerator. It is ozone friendly and used for normal curing of cyanoacrylates, depositing a correct balance of neutralizing ions on the surface, stimulating attrition for the adhesive and preparing the surface for bonding.

APPLICATIONS: Mercury MH16 is primarily designed for fast cure of thick deposits or for post curing outside the bond line. MH16 prevents absorption of the lower viscosity superglues into porous items. MH16 helps bridge gaps which decrease polymerization time.

Useful Hints: Mercury MH16 can be used to speed cure by brushing or spraying onto the surface, applying drop wise, the superglue and then over spraying to cure fillets such as on wire tacking jobs. Works best under repeated applications rather than one excessively large application.

Useful Hints Foam: When any accelerator is used with foams, it should be misted into the air and one part waved through the mist. Spraying directly onto foam may cause adhesives to cure too quickly with the resulting heat damaging the foam. Although this is our favorite accelerator for foam, it is always reccomended that you test any adhesive or accelerator on a scrap before using on your model. Incompatibilitys may exist, none of which we are aware.

  • WORLD'S BEST CANOPY GLUE
  • CLEAR AND FAST DRYING
  • DRIES FLEXIBLE
  • NON-TOXIC
  • WATER CLEAN UP 

Uses:

Pacers FORMULA 560 GLUE offers exceptional bonding of most all plastic and vinyl. 560 dries clear making it the perfect glue to use for attaching airplane canopies and vacuum formed ABS parts. The excellent shock resistant flexible bond means your airplane parts will stay put even when subject to high vibration and extreme speeds. 560 is also an excellent craft glue. Its ability to stick various materials together makes it great for craft work including wood, clay, plaster, foam, and fabrics. The nontoxic and water-based formula means kids can safely use it for their special projects.

 

Helpful Hints:

When using FORMULA 560 to attach a canopy or wind screen, trim the parts for as close a fit as possible. 560 will migrate under small cracks forming a complete seal and a very tight bond, the smaller the gaps the better the bond. You will need to clamp or tape the parts together for several hours until the glue starts to turn clear, full strength takes about 24 hours. Temperature and humidity will affect the drying times. Keep FORMULA 560 from freezing.
