So I watched this YouTube Video which discusses how to use E6000 Premium contact adhesive (glue) on BMC and Armies in Plastic figures. I am dangerously assuming that BMC and Armies in Plastic figures are made of either LDPE or HDPE plastic, and the E6000 Premium glue will stick to them. Anyone on TMP have personal experience with using E6000 Premium on LDPE/HDPE figures? I jumped (hopefully not the shark -- Duh, duh, DUH!!!) into it, ordering a tube of it off of Amazon, as I have never seen the red tube of it in local stores. If no one has tried it yet, I will report back. I have a few mod's I can use this on, and if it works, it would be amazing!… Cheers! |

E6000 will definitely work on "Soft Plastic". The only issue is it takes a long time to dry completely. |

I've used E6000 regular glue, for many a year. Love that stuff! Never tried the Premium version yet, though… It's on order from Amazon, so I will have it by next week to try it out. I have an AFV that I want to add a sitting bipod machine gunner Army Man figure to its top hatch with the Premium glue. I used Hot Glue for this, in a past modification, and that worked superbly, but it was a bit messy. If I can swap heads, weapons, and perhaps even upper torso's, this would open up many possibilities for fun conversions! Cheers! |
