Glue splodges

[Yimkin]

So, even using a touch n flow, I still sometimes get a splodge of glue where I don't want it.

What's the best thing to do? Let it dry then scrape off with a scalpel?

Thanks

Always let it dry. Whether you use a knife or a file to remove it is a matter of individual taste.

Well Chris the best thing is not to get it. I thought touch and flow was the bees knees but soon kicked it into touch. I found it a disaster area.

Have you tried Mr Cement S. It is very thin and wicks well along joints. As it is thin even if you get a little on the plastic surface it will

not effect the surface. But you have to have your pieces in place as it wicks and dries quickly. Found it dries (not cures) with a joint secure after 20 secs.

Where I want just a little time to adjust fractionally pieces or a slightly stronger joint I use Tamiya Extra thin. That dries in about 40 secs.

One thing keep the thumbs and fingers away as both cements allow incredible finger prints on pristine plastic.
