Post by Mickky »

Hi guys,
I have been watching Paul's Tamiya Corsair build and saw him use this.How do you clean the tip and stop it blocking up?

Dip it back in the bottle of glue and it should clear it :)

I have one of them but I have not used it yet but I'm planning to do a build using it to see if I like it or not.

I have one too, but not used yet. Can ANY thin glue be used in it...tet for instance.
Listen and appear wise

Just be careful when applying the glue that you don't get any molten plastic stuck in the end, if you do and your careful you can blow win the open end of the tube removing the obstruction.

What about clearing it of glue when you have finished the session. I ask because I threw one away because it wouldn't take up the glue from the bottle
