feoffee2 Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 I have a few vac form kits with metal parts and super glue doesn't seem to be sticking them. Does anyone have any hints or tips. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Knight Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Try Araldite or any othe two-part epoxy. The rapid set ones set rather jelly like, the ones that take 12 to 24 hours to cure set much harder. Milliput can work too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nigel Heath Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Devcon five minute epoxy works well and forms a very strong bond. It also sets quite clear - I sometimes use it for canopies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noeyedears Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 +1 for devcon. Anything that needs a bit of strength gets done with it. I slather it around resin pits wheel wells and noses after tacking with CA and always use it for metal legs etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

upnorth Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Add another thumbs up for Devcon. That stuff has a rock hard grip, mix it right and your part isn't going anywhere once it's set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
