Tamiya 87038 Extra Thin Cement Glue Fine Tip 40ml
Tamiya Extra-Thin Cement (Item No. 87038) is widely regarded as an indispensable tool for plastic model assembly. Unlike standard plastic cements, this formula has an extremely low viscosity—it is almost as thin as water—allowing it to be applied using the highly effective **capillary action** technique.
This method involves holding two perfectly fitted plastic (polystyrene) parts together, then lightly touching the seam with the brush. The ultra-thin cement instantly flows along the joint, dissolving and welding the plastic surfaces together without causing excess glue squeeze-out or messy residue on visible areas. It is the preferred choice for a strong, clean, and virtually invisible bond.
Key Features
- **Ultra-Thin Consistency:** A low-viscosity liquid that flows effortlessly into tight seams and pre-fitted parts via capillary action.
- **Precision Applicator:** Includes a fine-tipped brush attached to the cap for pin-point accuracy on small parts and delicate seams.
- **Clean Finish:** Minimizes the risk of visible glue marks or smudges on the model's surface.
- **Standard Volume:** Generous 40ml quantity ensures plenty of cement for multiple large projects.
- **Application:** Ideal for large seams (like fuselage or hull halves) and small, fiddly components that require high precision.
As a solvent-based adhesive, this cement is specifically designed for use on polystyrene plastics. We recommend using Tamiya's standard, slightly thicker cements (like Item 87012) for filling small gaps or joining parts that do not fit perfectly.
