@@InternationalScaleModeller woah thats great, no idea it could last that long! You havent noticed any differense in quality being that long? Thank you again!
How long will it stay liquified after making? I don’t want to make a lot if it solidifies before I can use it, or will it stay in liquified state as long as the top is airtight?
If you leave the sprouts goo in the bottle for a while, how long will it stay soft enough to use say 1 month down the line. Can you make flexible tank tracks with the goo?
I wonder if you can you use a stainless steel agitator with in the bottle? If thin enough could be good, too thick useless, and either way it would need to be a non-reactive addition, not sure if it would rust or react though.
I have already tryed this I made it too thick and I used all tip of sprue and you are right and if you stick with one and not keep adding more it will work, But thank you again I will keep this in mine
Does the plastic glue have to be half empty? I've got a tub that I've been using for a few months but its still like 80% full. Would this work? Do I just need more sprue or will it be too much or something? Thanks
Might be a daft question, but can you mix any colour sprue together or is it best to stick to one colour and only use said colour on same colour parts??
I built a wide variety of model kits anything from Warhammer to Gundam to aircraft. I thought that I had possibly added too much brew into the Tamia cement because mine is extremely extremely thick and it seems to dry really really fast and I think I’m doing something wrong.
I have made some with clear sprue as it is harder. (just add a tiny drop of lacquer paint to the mix so you can see it when you use it) The harder mix performs better in areas where you will have to replace lost detail (rivets/panel lines)
I"ve made 3 different batches in the last month, and every one of them left filler material after scraping and sanding that was full of very small bubbles. .3 mm to .5 mm. No idea why.
@@InternationalScaleModeller No kidding. I am apparently the only person in the whole world who has this problem.Tamiya Extra Thin, and sprue. Nothing more, nothing less but every time i've used it, let it harden and scraped/sanded it, bubbles. The entire mass is like a sponge... Beats the hell out of me.
I Discovered Sprue Rod Outty 4-5 Years ago I prefer to Use Testirs Liquid Cement with Brush. Because it Makes Slightly Thicker Putty The Really Nice thing about it When you Maje it From Sane pkastic as kit you're Working on the Filked area Compketely Dusappears after Gassing out & sanding because it returns to Solid Plastic and Hides Repairs or Modifications Completely wish I'd known about the Trick 50 year ago
Excellent video I've been actually thinking about the best way to make sprue goo... And it's super simple but I just had to watch you do it first so I don't muck it up myself no pun intended with the muck word. So Paul I was thinking I sent you a response to another one of your videos tutorial videos about types of glue you use and when you use them because there are glues to use with painted parts like I think CA loctite and that glue you use with the UV light I think can be used with these.... But there's so many other areas of a model which are more conducive to using you know the extra thin Tamiya for I think most unpainted surfaces... Elmer's white glue etc for clear parts... I think to clear this up ...no pun intended again...I think it would be great if you could do a tutorial on these as well I personally would greatly appreciate this.... And get that 56 Del Rey built I want to watch your awesome work on this pretty cool kit! Your step by step kit builds are some of the best on UA-cam keep it up Paul and keep the mojo....
It Can Stay Useable for about a Year & You're likely to use it up Before it Goes bad. You also Can Use it to Repair Badly Damaged bodies like one that accidentally Got Stepped on !
well ive certainly got alot of sprue some ive had for nearly 30 years its got a use now . also all those bodies and parts i cant save . props D.I.Y. the punk rawk ethos applies to so much of life . its sad punk and its msg got commoditized into oblivion .
Very useful tip. Thanks for sharing.
If it works it must be the correct way too make it. That’s how I make it. Thanks for sharing
👍🏻👍🏻🙃🙃
Great video! Will try this! Is it possible to prepair it and just have it laying around indefinetly for whenever a model need some filling?
Yes thats what I do, I have a bottle thats over 5 years old
@@InternationalScaleModeller woah thats great, no idea it could last that long! You havent noticed any differense in quality being that long? Thank you again!
Can you make this with a different plastic cement brand?
Yea should work fine
Can I use normal Tamiya Cement? or do I need extra thin?
Love this concept. How long does it take to dry?
How long will it stay liquified after making? I don’t want to make a lot if it solidifies before I can use it, or will it stay in liquified state as long as the top is airtight?
Ive had this bottle since the day i made it and this video and its still usable, all it will ever need is more extra thin and it'll be good to go
Thanks for the tip. Came across this by accident, glad i found it👍.
Thank you buddy Happy New Year :)
Great tip!!
Hi what plastic did you usiedli becouae i put difrent plastic and it doesn’t melt :( 😢
If you leave the sprouts goo in the bottle for a while, how long will it stay soft enough to use say 1 month down the line. Can you make flexible tank tracks with the goo?
I've got a bottle that years old and still works fine
Just heard of this stuff, great vid to kind of see what it's about and how to do it without much fuss!
Is it best done with the extra thin or normal cement?
Extra thin
Does the sprue glue need to be used by a certain time? It wouldn't harden in the bottle would it?
No I’ve had some for years
@@InternationalScaleModeller thanks for answering I had always wondered
I wonder if you can you use a stainless steel agitator with in the bottle? If thin enough could be good, too thick useless, and either way it would need to be a non-reactive addition, not sure if it would rust or react though.
I think it would be way to thick sadly :)
I have already tryed this I made it too thick and I used all tip of sprue and you are right and if you stick with one and not keep adding more it will work, But thank you again I will keep this in mine
Thanks for the info. I'll be trying this with Games Workshop sprues.

Ideally yea but you can mix to your own recipe I’m just giving a rough starting point
@@InternationalScaleModeller ah fair, thanks!
I def haven't been adding enough spru pellets....thanks mate
Great tips.. Thanks👍
Thanks glad it was useful
Might be a daft question, but can you mix any colour sprue together or is it best to stick to one colour and only use said colour on same colour parts??
Yeah you can but I tend to use one colour and brand
Great stuff!!
GOTTA LOVE THE GOO!! :)
Another top tip.What about a video of what you clean your brushes in
I didn't catch it in the video and I couldn't see what was on the bottle, but what liquid did you add the sprue pieces to?
Tamiya extra thin sement.
Yep as said below :)
Can I use a plastic container instead of a jar
I would use a glass jar otherwise it may melt
👍👍👍
My favourite filler. Just be patient with the drying. A thumbs down for a sprue glue video? You gotta be kidding me .... lol.
Out of curiosity, why the Tamiya extra thin?
Because it’s probably the best styrene glue :)
@@InternationalScaleModeller thanks. I'll add that to my extra long hobby wishlist then
I will give it a try
I’ve just taken a break from the live stream to watch this after my poetic question
I built a wide variety of model kits anything from Warhammer to Gundam to aircraft. I thought that I had possibly added too much brew into the Tamia cement because mine is extremely extremely thick and it seems to dry really really fast and I think I’m doing something wrong.
Does this mixture dry inside the bottle?
No. So long as you close up the bottle it will last you a while. I've been using the same bottle for goo for about 3 years now (reloaded twice)
Awesome...
Thanks.
I have made some with clear sprue as it is harder. (just add a tiny drop of lacquer paint to the mix so you can see it when you use it) The harder mix performs better in areas where you will have to replace lost detail (rivets/panel lines)
And it cures faster also
Love this idea - How long does it last after making it?
My bottle is years old and still good
What is This used for?
Filling gaps on plastic
Good idea for bad fitting crappy model kits like the one I'm building
I"ve made 3 different batches in the last month, and every one of them left filler material after scraping and sanding that was full of very small bubbles. .3 mm to .5 mm. No idea why.
That's weird

Anyone know if this works for printed resin? Like supports?
I doubt it as the glue melts the plastic
👏👏👏

As a filler as the title says ;)

Just a comment
for the algorithm.
Prrrfect
Old school is sometimes the best !!!
Made some Sunday evening , as my old bottle I’ve had about 3 years was rather thick 👍 …..flint stones mate 😂
Maybe you could mention what the liquid is?
What liquid?
@@InternationalScaleModeller What is the liquid that you put the sprue bits into to cause them to dissolve?
@@mega_game_play At 1 min 20 seconds mark I tell you, Tamiya Extra thin.
or you can buy a tub of putty for 4 quid ;) problem solved
But it’s not though as most putties shrink back this doesn’t ;)
