Christer A Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Completely transparent main body? Interesting approach to solve that greenhouse. I wonder if a Ca 313 is on the list too? I could use a few for swedish B16 and S16:s! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trikke11 Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 If I'd like to keep the upper fuselage transparent, that would mean I can only use something like Kristal Klear to keep the fuselage halfs together, right ? Is Klear strong enough for that ? And if it isn't, is there any other transparent glue that won't fog up the clear parts ? I'm afraid it doesn't leave a lot of opportunity for filler if it's a poor fit either. Unless with Klear. When a kit's interior is well detailed, I always contemplate making cut outs so you can see inside. Why else spend so much time on the interior, unless only to spend time ? Recently I bought the Hasegawa B24-J and they kept the nose transparent too. Why would they that ? I also bought the last Italeri Stirling Mk.I I could find on the continent and I just have to make cut outs so you can see the beautiful details inside, I'm not going to be able to help myself. 😉 But I digress, sorry.

oggy4u Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 Can you give out a brand name of watermaker glue please ? I have a Phantom Mustang . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giorgio N Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 An alternative is to use a UV curing glue. These generally are perfectly clear after curing and some of them are also pretty strong. Lazerbond is a good brand but there are others from large companies, like Fischer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
