## Description

Humbrol 24ml Balsa Cement (Tube) : desertcart.co.uk: DIY & Tools

Review: Sticks quickly and well. - Good for the inexperienced as it performs well. Used carefully, it does spurt everywhere as soon as its opened.
Review: Flashbacks to childhood - A good quality balsa cement which works well on balsa plane builds. Works applied neat but gives an even stronger bond with a thin layer is first applied to each surface (I rub in with a finger) then allowed to dry before a second appllication to glue the parts. This seals the balsa surfaces for a better connection. Tube arrives sealed by cap - no need to pierce foil end and risk inadvertently squidging glue out. Best part in using this product is the nostalgic smell and glue covered fingertips. Just perfect :)

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this glue work well with pine?**
A: It’s specifically aimed at the property and texture of balsa wood which is light and porous in nature. I think it may be effective with very light pine but may not bond as effectively.

**Q: will this stick wood to plastic or wood to metal?  or is it just wood on wood?**
A: This adhesive is intended for wood joints only, as it requires porous surfaces and an 'escape route' for the solvent to evaporate. It might stick wood to some plastics, but there is a risk of excessively softening any plastic it is likely to adhere to.

**Q: Can I use this to glue twigs and tiny branches to make miniature fairy furniture? I have used a glue gun, but whatever I bond with that comes apart.**
A: Not sure wood would need to be very dry, glue gun possibly not hot melt whitch is what you would need for twigs

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Still good product though
*by B***H on 24 July 2016*

Does exactly as you'd expect (Glue wood) quick dry time. Only issue i have had is it runs out of the tube without you having to press down which can be messy when you don't expect it/ aren't used to it. Still good product though.
