CA...it also has a rubberizer to make it less brittle though.

2 part epoxy will become your friend for resin and metal. I use 5 minute epoxies almost exclusivle on metal, the bond is more durable than you get with super glues. Once you get a handle on it, it really isnt any more difficult than using CA.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551184/6033356.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551184/6033356.page GMT Alternative to Zap-A-Gap? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551184/6033469.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551184/6033469.page GMT Re:Alternative to Zap-A-Gap?
@Badablack, having been someone who hasn't simply "globbed it everywhere" and uses the needle applier exclusively, I can say with experience to anyone entering the hobby to work in a well-ventilated area with fans blowing as a precaution, not after becoming hyper-sensitized. I cannot get away with any light usage (light as in gluing together 3 metal models in an evening), lest I want to feel flu-like symptoms for 2-3 days after gluing models together. It sucks, but having lived in apartments for the better part of a decade has made it difficult to find those choice areas with good ventilation... and I'm now paying the price for it.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551184/6033489.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551184/6033489.page GMT Alternative to Zap-A-Gap? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551184/6036332.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551184/6036332.page GMT Alternative to Zap-A-Gap? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551184/6036351.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551184/6036351.page GMT Alternative to Zap-A-Gap?

As to epoxies, I LOVE JB Kwik! It sets quickly and holds extremely well. It also has the benefit of being available nearly everywhere and is quite inexpensive.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551184/6036545.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551184/6036545.page GMT Re:Alternative to Zap-A-Gap? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551184/6036693.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551184/6036693.page GMT Alternative to Zap-A-Gap?

JB has the advantage of being thick too. You can sculpt it up a bit and it is viscous enough to actually hold small plastic and resin parts without clamping. Plus, you can find it everywhere all the time.

One of the issues with CA allergies is that it will go through your skin. There is no amount of gloves or masks short of MOP level or a HAZMAT suit that works with them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551184/6036746.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551184/6036746.page GMT Re:Alternative to Zap-A-Gap? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551184/6036842.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551184/6036842.page GMT Alternative to Zap-A-Gap?
