Ultra Glue by AMMO by Mig Jimenez - Ideal for Etching, Clear Parts & More

This is really great modeling glue. Much stronger than most acrylic glue and when dried, and clear coated, is invisible. I use it to attach brass railings or other small brass pieces to 1/700 scale ship models and when dry, it is almost impossible to remove the glued-on part. Would be great for attaching canopies and windshields on car models since it doesn't craze the plastic and any that runs out of the seam can be easily removed with a drop of water on a paint brush and touching it with a tissue which soaks it right up. They say no residue and they are right.

This glue is absolutely perfect for photo etch. I can't attest to how long it lasts, but it does form a very strong bond between styene and photo etch parts while building a model. It usually takes me a month to complete a model and the parts I glued with this item are still bonded strong as I'm writing this review. I 100% recommend this product!!!

As mentioned in the reviews it takes a bit to understand how it works. Once applied you have enough time to position item you gluing and then you need to let it do it's job. Defiantly a learning experience . Would recommend this for PE parts gluing.

Got this over a recommendation on a model making site about adhesives for canopies and clear parts. Found it works much better than expected. Holds the parts very snug and strong. Which, unfortunately, was not what I was expecting when I thought I would just be tacking a canopy part in place during paint masking. The small amount of glue I'd used held tight and was a bit of a struggle to get apart. Which is what you want really, so lesson learned.

I was excited to try this. Who doesn't want a better choice than CA for PE? Quickly found that it works best when gluing flat surfaces. Also learned that it takes a LONG time to fully cure! Talking a few hours! However, you can only reposition for a few seconds before you start creating a mess. I complained about the product on their Facebook page, and they responded. I guess, if you want faster setting, you can add thin CA glue using capillary action AFTER applying this stuff. Haven't tried that yet, but once I realized how to deal with it as is, I get great results! Try not to use too much, as it can be messy and hard to remove excess. Using it sparingly and clean excess quick, and you'll love the results! Oh, and let it cure for a couple hours before handling/painting, 8-12 hours is optimal.

It slowly dries so that there’s enough time to make adjustments on the PE parts placement. When it dries, it surely attaches on the model and does not detach when bumped.

Great product

Great product !

Goede lijm voor photo etsch en doorzichtige plastic delen

Conforme aux attentes

If you are building scale models (especially airplanes) and always fear fogging on canopies and transparent parts this is your solution. Dries fully clear in a few hours, applied easily by brush or toothpick. Great product overall.

Ne me convient

I've been looking for an alternative to CA for a while now as I can't use it without a full face respirator or risk a nasty 48 hour allergic reaction that keeps me in bed! I've tried White glue, varnish and even double sided sticky tape with varying results. When I received this and saw what resembles white PVA glue I wasn't hopeful, but used it anyway on a Trumpeter type 23 build with aftermarket PE. It is quite thick and I am probably putting a little too much on but it does stick after a while. It's not instantaneous so some steady hands required to hold in place. The proof in the pudding came when I had what could have been a major disaster. Whilst repositioning my magnified angle poise lamp, it slipped and crashed down on a nearly complete bridge section sending it to the floor. Expecting to find a mangled mess and a load of PE lost to the carpet monster, all was still attached. I find CA bonds very brittle so bits get knocked off easily but this stuff seems to be slightly flexible. Some of the PE was bent badly, but the bond held whilst I did some pretty major bending back to shape. Very impressed. Excellent! Give it a try.
