👍 [Beginner Tips] Glue tips

Currently in new kits, Robotime/Rolife often uses tape instead of glue.
The advantage of tape: it doesn’t stick to surfaces.
The disadvantage: it’s difficult to remove for people with big fingers.
In the past, Robotime/Rolife used glue in their kits.
There are many types of glue used for models, such as:


:collision: However, I usually do not use them. I use more specialized glues. These glues have good adhesion, the small nozzle does not make the glue flow out much, and does not cause stickiness.




:raised_back_of_hand: But with any kind of glue, I must use this bottle to make.

In addition, for each type of material, I also use different types of glue.

Have used every type you shown except the UV activate type. You are very correct, not every part can use just any type of adhesive. Great job pulling all of this tip together and sharing.

Great tips! Thanks for sharing. The glue stick will definitely spread most evenly, especiall for large sheets of paper.
