Tamiya Extra Thin Liquid Cement Glue with Applicator Brush - 40ml Bottle - 87038

If you have been using Citadel plastic glue and are looking for something that offers more control and a cleaner finish then Tamiya Extra Thin is a total game changer. While Citadel glue is great for general assembly it can sometimes be a bit gloopy and hard to control. This Tamiya cement however is a fantastic alternative that takes your builds to the next level. The 40ml square bottle is incredibly stable on the desk and the fine applicator brush built into the cap makes those bulky plastic nozzles feel like a thing of the past. The real magic here is the ultra low viscosity and capillary action. Instead of applying a bead of glue and hoping it stays put you can dry fit your parts together first then touch the brush to the seam and watch as the glue instantly sucks into the joint. It works by slightly melting the plastic to create a welded bond that is incredibly strong. Because it is so thin it evaporates quickly which significantly reduces the risk of accidental fingerprints or messy overflow that can ruin fine detail. The final result is a much cleaner build with far less cleanup or sanding required. It is perfect for everything from delicate infantry models to large scale vehicles where you want seamless joins. For any hobbyist who wants professional results without the mess of thicker adhesives this is an essential upgrade for your workbench. It is a hobby staple that truly lives up to the hype.

The Tamiya Extra Thin Cement 40ml is widely renowned throughout the world as the best product for gluing together plastic model kits made from polystyrene plastic. The extra thin formula allows modelers to glue small pieces with pinpoint accuracy and finesse, thanks to the fine brush applicator included. This glue is perfect for creating seamless joins without any mess or bulky residue. Using this glue is definitely a learning curve, so make sure you don’t accidentally use it on the wrong material, like I did when I tried using it on the wrong material, let's just say it wasn't designed for anything other than plastic, and I ended up with an interesting, albeit unsuccessful, experiment. Lesson learned! The glue's capillary action lets it flow effortlessly between tightly matched parts, creating an almost invisible bond and setting faster than Tamiya's standard cement. It’s ideal for anyone looking to take their model building to the next level, offering precision, reliability, and a professional finish. Please note: this cement should be used in a well-ventilated area, and it is highly flammable, so avoid using it near any naked flames. Close the cap immediately and securely after use to prevent evaporation. Just remember to keep those fingers out of the way, and you'll be set for success!

This is the best glue I have used for building warhammer and other models. Pieces stick within seconds and once hardened never come apart. The bottle also lasts for a long time as very little is needed per piece. Application is made easy using the brush attached to the inside of the cap.

Nice glue to use.

I use this for tabletop wargame modelling, both figures and vehicles (Bolt Action, Warhammer sort of thing.) It's really a plastic cement so will only work with those sort of plastics. It won't glue resin or metal. For this task it's amazing though. It's really thin, very precise with the brush and grips faster than standard cements like Games workshops version which is really helpful when you are working with tiny miniatures and fiddly parts. You can get a piece in place, let it grip, make fine adjustments and then because the glue is so thin even drop more into any seam or joint by capillary action of you need/want to. Wouldn't use anything else. Only thing to be aware of is to keep the top on because it will evaporate and it does give of mild spirit type fumes, so may not be suitable for young children to use.

amazing glue for warhammer as it fuses the plastic together into a really strong bond, thin so it can wick into small gaps. built a tyranid combat patrol with it and it's barely made a dent in how much is in the bottle so this will last forever. Seeing that it melts the plastic to form the bond it's also great at filling in tiny gaps left between parts, just put a little on the crease and work the brush over the gap and the plastic slightly liquifies and fills the gap.

Tamiya Extra Thin Cement is hands down the best plastic glue I’ve used. The ultra-thin formula flows perfectly into seams and joints by capillary action, giving you super clean and precise bonds without any mess. The included applicator brush in the cap is small and accurate, which makes it easy to apply just the right amount, even in tight spots. It’s ideal for assembling scale models, Gundams, Warhammer kits, and anything polystyrene-based. It slightly melts the plastic to fuse pieces together, resulting in a strong bond that looks seamless once set. Dries quickly and doesn’t leave a glossy residue if you’re careful. If you're serious about model making, this is a must-have in your toolkit. Just remember — it's not a gap filler, it’s for precision bonding.

Bought to replace the citadel glue for my warhammer figures. It works superbly. I won’t be looking back.

Super cement for plastic, nice and sharp brush

Tres bon produit et de bonne qualité

It's easy to apply, and the smell isn't too strong. It's saved me from several minor accidents with my model kits. It's a good quality glue, durable, and works quite well overall. I think it's an excellent product for the price. It doesn't leak.
