i bought a few of the grishhnak kits and citadel glue does not work on them. Superglue? I have no clue.

What are they made of?

Resin* & metal - Superglue.

Plastic - Polystyrene cement/other deciated plastic glues or superglue.


*make sure you've washed any resin models to remove the mould release agent. Scraping any contact points with your hobby knife so that they're definitely bare resin is always a good shout.

Use Zap-a-Gap - it's available almost everywhere and holds well to anything.That includes skin, so don't use too much

Grishnak models are resin if I remember correctly.

I used Loctite Super Glue on my grishnak models, worked fine.

As someone mentioned above, you probably need to wash them with soap first.

Always wash in 'warm' not hot soapy water, use washing up liquid and rinse, leave to dry naturally do not use heat. Resin models are coated in release films and often even if rinsed by the seller they still are coated.

Use a decent Superglue, a high viscosity one would work well, Everbuild or Zap are good choices. Superglues come in different types ( do not mean to lecture) worth Googling and checking out.

If you are looking at two piece and heavy resin part may want to consider a small pin option.

GW do some nice stuff, Superglue never found to be one of them. It like anything comes in a variety of qualities and types.
