For anyone watching this in the future, the solvent in nail varnish that melts plastic is a common solvent used in nail varnish, and is also a component of plastic cements such as Tamiya thin and Tamiya extra thin, and that is Acetone. Acetone is notorious for, and actually used to dissolve styrenes and polymer plastics. If you're looking for a nail varnish to use on polycaps and joints, make sure it is acetone/acetate free.

For the nail varnish thing, anything with enamel and lacquer is potentially damaging to Bandai's plastic. They are a bit more sensitive compared to plastics being used by Tamiya, Airfix, etc. (Even though they all listed it as Polystyrene).

[@slyfawkes7772]

Just going back and rewatching some older Mecha videos, and holy smokes Batman, this aged like a fine wine! - 14:01 Mecha has since become Irish Ken Kaneki.

[@buddykiller]

the nail varnish thing is VERY common in the action figure community, but bandai's plastic tends to be "softer" than normal plastic and is more susceptible to solvents. also, the proper method for using super glue (again, a thing from the action figure community) is to place a drop on the ball, snap it back into the joint, move it around, take it out, THEN let it dry. this evenly distributes the glue over the surface so you don't get any lumpy spots. it will absolutely cloud the plastic and will break down over time requiring more glue leading to broken joints and brittle plastic so don't mess with them too much after fixing them.

@androyus I wouldn't necessarily call them "mistakes" i would more call them bad choice making as MGK wasn't wrong for cutting, burning, slapping, ect Gunpla it was just not the best way to go about that if you get what i mean. Also the kits he abused weren't exactly super rare or super high end kits, he wasn't burning a PG Phenex he was burning a Super Fumina which is one of the most hated kits out there so i don't think anyone really cared that much as for the Saz and Victory Hexa Dash Ver Ka. those shouldn't have been cut to bits or slapped but like i said their not rare, highly sought after, or highly praised so i think it was fine y'know.

I remember using glue as a solution to tighten up the joints, as I realized a few days later, the joint was a bit loose again, so I took it off and realized that I had melted 2/10 of the joint away. Definitely won't be putting joint back into the socket without waiting for it to dry.

[@tfmsgderek8885]

my favorite mistake is the one I pointed out on the MG Impulse

[@luminusprime]

The best thing to tighten plastic joints with is Pledge floor wax with Future brand acrylic varnish. You can also use it as a topcoat if you want a glossier finish on a part.

[@NoahR_]

A bought a huge bottle of that stuff at Walmart for five or six bucks a few years ago. I still have plenty left to this day. It also works well for a gloss topcoat since it self-levels.

[@jonathangarza1656]

To tighten joints i use my girlfriends nail polish. Drys quick and works great. Also the super glue one works too as well as paint but it has to be a thick paint. Works none the less.

[@DevanteWeary]

The number 1 thing to tighten joints: Pledge Future Floor Wax. Don't use any nail polish or whatever. This is a well known joint tightener in the Transformer community.

[@lunoadji]

This popped up on recommended. He still didn't learn to put the ankle armour on the Eva properly. :)

[@danyvinasco7]

as a substitute for varnish/paint, if you live in the US or UK, your nearest comic/hobby store almost certainly sells warhammer stuff. you can pick up a tub of "'ard coat" a type of painted-on topcoat used in the war-gaming community which works really well for tightening joints.

Eyy, I remember back when you said that Barbatos and Hajiborshi were the same thing.

Might need to do another of these... Maybe have it be a Annual video? Also Urdr Hunt isn't so much cancelled or anything like that but put into a delayed status not only because of the Virus but also a issue with some of the licensing for the game. And apparently them not being able to settle on how they actually want the game to work... (Apparently some form of Tactical RPG, Action RPG, or something like the Gunpla Warfare game is in the lead right now.)

[@shadoukyatto4758]

I believe the story of Urdr-Hunt is being released through the Mobile Suit Gundam IRON-BLOODED ORPHANS G app, which was the game which first featured Gundam Marchosias itself as well - at least, through screenshots of it in-game. I personally think that if they went this far already for Marchosias, Hajiroboshi and the story it comes from will follow in due course... But that's just me.

[@NeoSlashott]

Number 1 is a helpful precaution, some chemicals in different kinds of paint definitely ate or melt specific plastics that cause breakage. Mecha, my final helpful tip to you is Never use a GodHand Nipper on Clear plastics AT ALL! Thin metal-nipper breaks when cutting a sturdy, durable plastic which is why Thicc-nippers is a must. xD

[@gooselord_prime]

acrylic should be fine on straight plastic but anything stronger like enamel or lacquer will eat away the plastic if left on for too long or in large enough quantities. Found this out the hard way on my first master grade a while ago. Not a happy night.

[@cpubanana9757]

I use nail varnish on my kits to tighten joints and I make sure it's the right type. If you're going to use it use a spare runner or something to test that it doesn't melt it.

[@autophreaktrishield]

Guess i have been lucky with the Joint Tightning then. I used clear Nail Polish ever since you posted that vid and worked way better then glue or paint ever did for me. And 0 melted plastics.

[@SolaireFlair]

One trick I've always used for loose joints is putting a tiny piece of tissue paper or toilet paper around the joint before inserting it. It adds mass so the joint holds better, it's safe, and it's totally reversible if you need to remove it for some reason.

[@activeterror]

I've taken the joint thickening trick to heart and use one of my gundam markers (black, matte) almost exclusively for it... But you can't use it on everything, either. I've broken one wrist (alex 2.0) and one knee (zeta plus unicorn ver), because it was more than the plastic can sometimes take.... Many, even most, kits though? Get those tight joints to hold poses!

A little screw up you made that i remember is that you put the shield of the gm gm wrong, the square part connected to the arm, not to the shield itself.

The main thing to look at when tightening joints is the amount of acetone in a product. Acetone eats through ALL PLASTICS. However if you use small doeses of it like on 3D prints, you can creatE what's called an acetone weld and it makes the area super strong. The materials however range wildly so seriously DO NOT TRY THIS UNLESS YOU'RE WILLING TO POTENTIALLY GIVE YOUR PLASTIC AN ACID BATH!
