The extra thin cement isn't cement at all. It's solvent. The solvent dissolves the plastic and allows the two parts to weld together as the solvent evaporates.
... if you are a hard-core modeller you can save a lot of money, when you brew your glue DIY ... you just have to order 1 Liter of Butylacetat at your next pharmacy and 1 Liter of Aceton ... mix them together 1:1 and you've got enough glue for the next years. That brew works similar than Tamiya Extrathin ... smells the same and you could re-activate your dried out putty, to give them a second life. That's all together for about 20 Euro or a liitle less in US Dollars !!
Thanks for this, i had a loose joint on my Gundam model kit and i have been looking around and this confused me, now i know that Normal Cement is better for loose joint since i need the thickness.
I tack tail lights, chrome trim, etc. with a spot of Elmer's white glue & then secure with Tamiya extra thin...Elmer's white glue can be removed with a damp cloth without worry of too much solvent cement marring adjacent surfaces...
I don't know which crazy glue you use, but the crazy glue i use will leave a white fog around the part, also crazy glue don't give me enough time to adjust the part into position.
It's great for resin figures, but you can't sand it. It's basically latex caulk. If you're filling seams and flaws on a styrene model, it's best to use a putty made with solvent that softens the plastic slightly, so the putty bonds to the plastic. My go-to putties are Tamiya gray putty or 3M Acryl Blue glazing putty, found in auto parts or auto body paint stores. That 3M sands to a beautiful feather edge. I tried sanding Vallejo once and it peeled off of the plastic and balled up.
dont use these on paint. its for plastic on plastic application paint really affects the bond. use the thiun for capilery joins and the thick for parts and sand doan or cut away excess with blades..
Good video. I get what you mean but I use extra thin for joining the main car body panels. It is meant to run because it uses what is known as capillary action same as the panel line accent. It is meant to flow along the join area thats why the thin is different
The regular cement stays where it's put. The extra thin runs capillary into every crack and orifice. Which is better? It depends. I've found with aircraft (all I build) that about 66% of the time the extra thin is better for whatever my application. Sometimes though the regular cement is obviously the better choice i.e. aircraft cowlings and nose cones, and any clear piece of plastic for a few. For the really sensitive stuff like canopy pieces I prefer Micro Kristol Klear. So I have three different glues, all have their place.
thank bra... Im starting again and iIm 38yrs old lol.. and we didnt have these back then when I started and using the testors red glue sucked lol.. and I just did a car model with crazy glue it came out ugly.. thank you again mahalo...

_its sooo hard to listen this guy_ Yeah, had somebody introduced the words _liquid_ and _viscous_ into his vocabulary this video would've been 5 times shorter.
I live in Hong Kong. The Hong Kong Environmental Department no longer allow Tamiya glue to sell in the public because it's toxic. Now I can only buy Mr.Hobby glue for my model kits here.
Hey, i need help on this tamiya cement stuff! I bought a 1:12 nsx model that was very expensive. I dont want to damage it in any way. Do these cements damage the parts? I mean if i glue together some of the interior part i dont want that the cement harm the plastic. I think the odel is ABS plastis. thanks
This might be a bit too late, but abs plastic has a different cement than the ones he used on this vid.. also the way these cement work they melt the plastic as the fused together for stronger bond
Noooo!!! Don't use it on windows. It will etch it and you will see it. Use canopy glue, gloss mod podge, or even Elmer's glue for windows. You'll thank me later.
how about diffrence for tamiya cement (the labble white) and tamiya ca instant cement for rubber tire, im on way to build tamiya kit tundra and at gear section thats require tamiya ca instant cement
you know its very funny that you say tamiya extra thin cement is not thinner,but i hate to break it to you my friend TAMIYA EXTRA THIN IS EXACTLY THAT LAQUER THINNER people in the know will actually buy tamiya x20 thinner and use it as tamiya extra thin cement because you get a larger container for cheaper cost,tamiya extra thin and tamiya x20 laquer thinner are the exact same ingredients look it up amigo
Don't glue painted plastic with this cement. This is for assembly of unpainted styrene. Once parts are painted, if I need to assemble them - such as landing gear parts- I use thick CA, five-minute epoxy, or Gator Grip glue. Either way, edges that are joined should be unpainted or have the paint scraped away first.
Each to there own but this isn't really the purpose/only or even best use of extra thin. Look on UA-cam for a review of tamiya extra thin and the guy will show you is real potential. It's a wedding cement. And yes, it should dry clear on a canopy but don't take my word for it ask google.
OMG!!! ... Sorry but ... Using ANY kind of solvent based glue to gluing clear parts from the kit is quite...ehm... Unusual (if not stupid) ... Solvent based glues contains toluene, which acts like strong acid on some kinds of plastic ( including polystyrene, yeah.. material which are most of plastic kits made from). Even fumes may soften and destroy clear plastic . Especially Extrathin - although vaporizes quite fast - is really agressive because it contains much more toluene than standard type (that´s why is so thin ) and is really difficult to controll while spreads through seams what causes damage of canopies/headlights/any kind of clear polystyrene parts , which is difficult to fix and sometimes impossible ... 2 parts epoxy , Humbrol ClearFix, Testors Clear Parts Cement or any kind of odourless superglue is way you should go my friend. Keep those solvents for stadnard parts. Clear parts needs more carefull approach.Sorry for my english folks.
I think the one you are refering to crazy glue. Crazy glue does leave fog. Ive use tamiya cement for a long time for the clear parts, its works fine with me, leaves me no marks, unless i touch the part with it. But i know some people use paste for the clear parts, you could give that a try also. By the way alot of builders use the tamiya glue for the clear parts and they have no problem with it
No, I´ve never heard about Crazy Glue (or Krazy Glue? That is what Mr. Google found about this product...) till today. In Slovakia we don´t have this brand. From what I read about it, it´s just absolute ordinary Super Glue (or CA - Cyano-Acrylate). It´s obvious, that Super Glues leaving fog on on clear parts, this is the way how they works, fast chemical reaction is even visible. As i can see in your video from around 5:20 till 7:30, when you brushed glue into seam between rear light and body of your EVO, clear plastic starts to react with solvent almost instantly and the fog mark is clearly visible around edges. This situation does not occure with adhesives which I mentioned before. Never . On the other side, all depends on quality which you want to reach... For me, this result is unacceptable because joint must be clean an sharp with no marks... Your not. But it´s just my opinion, I´m not car builder, I´m making planes. But the car kits of this scale deserves paying higher attention to detail... Happy modeling.
+Samuel Francúz I thought so too, when I watched the vid - I thought the glue was ghosting on the headlight, but I watched it again and I don't think it did. If you watch you can see that ghosting look even at 4:30 when he didn't even apply the glue to the part yet. I think that's the reflection of the silver body showing through and it looks like that red paint/red tape wasn't painted carefully. Almost looked like there was a gap in the color.Maybe he wanted the headlight to look a little worn or maybe his fingers took some of the color off so that some of the silver color showed through it.
+Samuel Francúz Krazy Glue, in the modelers' world, is also called Zap-A-Gap. Same thing. Most modelers know this already, but I don't see it mentioned specifically by name, so I thought I'd add that little tidbit of info for anyone who might not already know.
+Plastic kit freak Crazy glue = cyanoacrylate. Yes it causes fogging. Trick I have seen is to dip the windshield or other piece in mop liquid such as Future Floor Finish then use small amounts of CA. There are also adhesives specifically for clear parts like Microscale Krystal Klear and Pacer "Formula 560" Canopy glue which I believe are PVA glues (polyvinyl acetate).
For scratches use 800 to 1000 grid sand paper to remove it. If weld, use crazy glue, these cement will shrink and expand due to the atmosphere, then you'll see a bubble or a gap that you filled
@@plastickitfreak2343 I used Loctite the Adhesive Bond as a putty, filling gaps and scratched surface. Then I use 400-800 or 1000 grit to smooth it out.
That is NOT the main purpose of the extra thin. The extra thin cement has a much better and more practical use that you obviously are unaware of. Also, if you are going to do tutorials, don't show people that you touch wet cement with your fingers, and try using tweezers for applying small parts.
Depends on which small parts, exterior rear view mirror, I use my fingers to apply it, my finger can't damage the paint job, tweezer will. The main point of this cement is quick dry, but if you watch the I also point out the other advantages of this cement.
H20 Lacrosse it will for sure, that's how they bond together. use a toothpick tip some cement and apply on to the part, the brush might mess your part up or a thin paint brush
TrainerRubyCheah the white one I usually use it for the not exposing parts, such as chassis, cockpit. I like to use the green one for the lights and on the rear view mirror. it's better to get them both
Okay, one last question. For gluing car bodies, I should use the white bottle? BTW for the GT86 for the RocketBunny flares, I should use the green bottle or the white one...
no no no. It will just make it "greasy". If you want to thin Testors , go to a paint store and buy a can of MEK. But be careful using it...the fumes'll get ya!
Do you drink coca cola? Pretty sure that is more dangerous than a bit of glue. It does stink sure but just open a window and dont drink the stuff! I am just testing out this Extra thin on some GW Space Wolfs. Not bad, massive jar for the price, seems like it will last ages. Oh and use PVA glue for any clear plastic canopies.
Krizzle Sizzle thanks for the comment, i am sure this is my last comment, because i've been drinking coke for a long time. I should be dead by........ now. But coke is just too dam good and got me thought some bad times. Either way thanks for watching and the support
Plastic kit freak Yeah buddy I have drank it myself for nearly 20+years with no adverse health affects. Granted I only have 1 or 2 cans per day max. My comment was just tongue in cheek humour really at "Samljer" for not opening his glue again due to scary warnings! As long as your not drinking the pot I dont see any issues. So far I am impressed with the extra thin and will be buying normal cement. I dont make Tamiya models but I use most Tamiya tools and glues. All amazing IMO.
The white one, apply a small amount on the mating surface with a tooth pick. Do some testing on some parts first get the feel of it. Tamiya doesn't fog up, crazy glue fogs up
Nick they both do dry clear, but white one would leave a really thick glue mark on what ever you apply on. The green one would leave a mark as well, but you really have to look for that mark, the only way for it to leave a mark is by applying way to much. I hope this helps. Thanks for the question. You can look for me on FB by the name Kits Kits Fanz, we can talk there as well

hey guys, i agree, our pkf guy did it ok.i think this kaskas creature should do the same review in japanese, i wonder how far he gets. thanks pkf, we love you.
Review-wise what KasKas said is true. More fluid talk is more easy-to-the-ear, though sometimes it's hard to do, nervous, etc. Why everyone just argue about good advice. This is for the sake of PKF too, why not?! For PKF, you can also try to add the audio later after you record the mute video (if nervous is the case), you can re-edit as much as you want with that.

A cement is a substance used to put two things together permanently, it can be a solvent, glue or adhesive.

I think it was fine and super helpful (I'm about to glue a lot of figures together). I came here to learn the difference between 2 types of model glue, not a TED talk.
hey guys, i agree, our pkf guy did it ok.i think this kaskas creature
should do the same review in japanese, i wonder how far he gets.
thanks pkf, we love you.
He was high on glue, give him a BREAK!!!😵 🤣
Review-wise what KasKas said is true. More fluid talk is more easy-to-the-ear, though sometimes it's hard to do, nervous, etc. Why everyone just argue about good advice. This is for the sake of PKF too, why not?!
For PKF, you can also try to add the audio later after you record the mute video (if nervous is the case), you can re-edit as much as you want with that.
I've never gotten dizzy listening to someone speak. Terrible video!
But the most surprising part about this video is that is the most watched
At the same time, I am really short of breath when I talk, also I have million things I want to talk about. That's why some video are a disaster
