Bob Smith Industries BSI-111 Maxi-Cure CA Adhesive, 1/2 oz.
Maxi-Cure extra thick CA is the best CA for most plastics, including GE™s Lexan. Maxi-Cure is the best choice for plastic model assembly. When used with Insta-Set , it works better than any putty for modifying or filling voids. It can be carved with a knife or razor blade and sanded and feathered to form a finish indistinguishable from plastic. Maxi-Cure bonds fiberglass, hardwood, metal and rubber better than any other hobby adhesive. For gluing to the inside, cloth textured surface or fiberglass, scrape the area to be bonded with a razor blade or coarse sandpaper before using Maxi-Cure or any other adhesive. It also is best for bonding the tires for R/C cars.
Maxi-Cure has proven to be very popular in the archery business for the fletching of vanes onto aluminum and carbon arrow shafts. Along with being the strongest, Maxi-Cure is usually the least expensive option for this application.
Directions:
Unscrew top from nozzle. For finer applications, use the extender tip. Apply Maxi-Cure CA to one side of the parts being joined, then hold them tightly together for 10-20 seconds. For larger bonding areas, apply serpentine beads of the CA with enough spacing to allow for the spreading of the adhesive. Insta-Set accelerator can be sprayed to cure the CA that oozes from joints. Full strength is reached in three hours. Wipe the nozzle clean before replacing screw-on top. Refrigerate to extend shelf life. Cured CA is stable from -40 to 220° F. Soak extender tip in acetone for cleaning.
