As an experienced modeller, I use superglue both to glue parts and fill gaps. When a gap is wider, I put small plastic rod or sheet in and level with superglue. This method is detail-preserving, it is reversible process. I use this plastic glue to put just big parts togehter, where there is no danger of losing details.

[@ScaleModellingVideos]

Thanks for the advice, I will keep that in mind for future builds.

Thanks mate. Appreciate it

So this works on the plastic that Bandai uses for their gundams?

[@ScaleModellingVideos]

Yes. These parts are from a Bandai MG MSA-003 Model kit. Ensure you use a think glue like Revell Contacta and wait for it to fully dry.

Nice vid, did u use file and polisher for the parts you cleaned using hobby knife too? They're so small the tools can't reach em

[@ScaleModellingVideos]

I was able to use the file in some areas where I had gone over with a hobby knife, but not all areas. The polisher could not be used as it was too thick in certain spots.

[@farraseldy3121]

@@ScaleModellingVideos so just scrape it with the knife? How's the finish for those small parts?

[@ScaleModellingVideos]

@@farraseldy3121 Yeah good, no seam lines and very smooth.

사용하는 접착제는 뭔가요? 다른 외국 모델러분들도 이런 거 쓰시던데, 수지 접착제인지 아니면 순간접착제 인지요?

[@ScaleModellingVideos]

Revell Contacta. 이것은 두꺼운 접착제입니다. 간격을 채울 때 항상 두꺼운 접착제를 사용하십시오.
