Hello All! As mentioned, going to start my build Nov.6-22. Wondering what would be the best glue to use (ie. Krazy Glue, Tamiya, etc.). I tried the "Search" function in this forum but it didn't yield any results.

I can only find the Touch-N-Flow Applicator in Sprue Brothers website. I only found the Tenax 7R glue at Model Train Stuff's website. Am I viewing the correct glue & applicator you are referring to?

Howdy, The touch and flow folks are in Ontario, and here is a link; http://www.flex-i-file.com/index.php
The Tenax I recommend has proven to be a bit hot for the touch and flow, and I think I failed to mention that when discussing it's use. (It does work, but if you forget and dont empty the touch and flow, you junk it.) Flex-i-file has a complete system they market. The tenax works extremely well, and has been my go to cement for decades now. I most often apply it with a brush. HTH! Tired, Old, and Cranky!

Thank you! Using a brush would make sense over continually filling/emptying a bottle/syringe. experten wrote:Howdy, The touch and flow folks are in Ontario, and here is a link; http://www.flex-i-file.com/index.php

Does the TenaxR7 also work glueing Resin-to-Metal parts.
If not, what would be a recommended glue.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks in advance! If memory serves me correct, the TenaxR7 is for ABS only. Super glue should do the trick. I use both a Gel version and the regular Loctite Super Glue(just be careful when using this as it flows very easy. You can use a toothpick, or something with a fine point to be more precise when applying) Hope this helps Building - DeAgostini HMS Victory, McLaren MP4-23, Suzuki GSX1300R Hayabusa, Harley Davidson Fat Boy, Lamborghini Countach

In the UK, Wilkinson hard plastic glue works superbly.

Yeah, Wilkinson or Wilko hard plastic glue is superb. It's probably the best glue i've ever used & it worked a treat on my McLaren. I'm not sure how you would get it over there though. Stu
