Body Set R/C PC Reinf Mesh Tape, hobby tape
300054792€10.791 m = €5.40
This reinforcing mesh tape gives polycarbonate body shells a practical way to add support exactly where repeated impacts and flex can wear down vulnerable sections. Supplied as a 2 m roll with a 35 mm width, it suits targeted reinforcement on spoilers, fenders and similar areas inside an R/C body, where extra backing helps stressed sections stay usable for longer during regular running and repair work. The mesh format is the key to how it works. Instead of covering a large section with a rigid patch, the open structure can be positioned on the inside of the shell over the area that needs support. Clear silicone adhesive is required separately to fix the tape in place. That method makes it easier to reinforce curved contours and narrow sections without adding a bulky layer, which is especially useful around edges, bends and other high-strain points on lightweight polycarbonate shells. On the workbench, the roll format keeps material ready for quick trimming when a body picks up cracks, weak spots or stress around exposed sections. It also suits planned reinforcement before the next session, whether the focus is on spoiler edges, wheel arch areas or other parts of the shell that see frequent contact.

Tamiya Cement w/Brush 20ml Plastic Model Glue
300087012€3.791 l = €189.50
Tamiya Cement w/Brush 20ml is a liquid adhesive for plastic modeling that combines controlled application with a compact 20 ml bottle. The brush built into the screw cap reaches directly into seams and contact points, making it easier to place cement where body parts meet during model assembly. The cement is described for strengthening a Dangun Racer body by applying it to the fitted parts before they are secured with screws. That sequence matters: the adhesive works at the mating surfaces while the screws hold the parts in position, helping the body come together as a more secure shell. The formula is a colorless liquid with ester odor and a density of 0.86 g/mL at 20°C. The safety data sheet classifies it as flammable and notes that it should be used only in well ventilated areas. On the workbench, the brush-cap bottle suits careful seam work on plastic bodies, small panels and other fitted sections where a broad applicator would be less precise. It fits naturally into model kit assembly sessions that call for measured adhesive placement rather than heavy glue flow, especially when reinforcing joined plastic sections before final fastening.

Extra Thin Cement Quick-Set, model cement
300087182€6.991 l = €174.75
Extra Thin Cement Quick-Set is a liquid model cement designed for precise bonding on plastic model assemblies. Its extra thin consistency lets the adhesive run into narrow joins by capillary action, making it useful when parts are already positioned and only the seam needs cement. The quick-setting character supports a faster working rhythm on builds with many small attachment points. The 40 ml bottle contains a clear liquid cement for detailed bench work, and the screw cap carries an integrated brush for controlled application along edges, corners and fine contact lines. This format helps place a small amount exactly where the joint is needed instead of flooding surrounding detail. The bottle shown is glass, which gives the cement a stable container for repeated workshop use. The formulation is identified as a solvent-based plastic cement, with ethyl acetate, acetone and butanone listed in the safety data. The liquid has a density of 0.86 g/mL at 20 °C and a boiling point of 56 °C. On aircraft, cars, tanks or other scale builds, this cement suits assembly stages where thin parts, interior sections or long body seams benefit from a flowing adhesive. Use requires careful handling in well-ventilated spaces, as the safety data states that the liquid and vapour are highly flammable and may cause serious eye irritation or drowsiness. Warning! Not suitable for children under 14 years.

Decal Adhesive Softener, model decal solution
300087193€5.891 l = €589.00
Decal Adhesive Softener is a decal setting liquid for scale model work that combines adhesive and softening properties in a 10 ml bottle. Used with water-slide decals, the transparent formula helps the marking film settle onto painted surfaces and follow shaped sections more closely, so insignia, stripes and small printed details sit with a cleaner painted-on look. The mixture is described as polyvinyl alcohol in solvents and is intended specifically as a decal adhesive with softener for Nassschiebebilder. The liquid is transparent, has an alcohol odour, and a density of 0.99 g/mL at 20°C. Physical data in the supplied sheet lists a boiling range of 82 to 120°C, a flash point of 35°C and a vapour pressure of 4.4 kPa at 20°C. These details place it firmly in the specialist finishing stage of model building, where decal placement and surface contact matter as much as paint and assembly. On aircraft, cars, motorcycles or military subjects, the bottle size suits bench work where only a small amount is needed at a time for serials, sponsor graphics or panel markings. The supplied safety data classifies the liquid as flammable and eye irritating, so handling belongs in a well-ventilated workspace with appropriate care during application and storage.

Mark Fit 40ml Decal Solvent with Brush
300087102€4.991 l = €124.75
Mark Fit 40ml is a decal solvent for scale models that helps wet slide decals settle onto curved and uneven surfaces with a cleaner, closer finish. The clear liquid comes in a 40 ml bottle with an attached brush, making it easy to apply the solvent exactly where the decal needs support. The application method is part of what makes the formula useful in detailed model work. First, the solvent is brushed onto the area where the decal will sit. After the decal is placed, it can be slid into position with a wet finger, then excess water and trapped air can be removed with a soft cloth or cotton swab. A second coat over the decal helps it conform more closely to the model surface while it dries. This sequence is especially helpful around bumpy sections, curved bodywork and other shapes where decals are harder to settle evenly. On a body shell, fairing, tank or other contoured part, Mark Fit supports sharper decal placement without changing the graphic itself. It suits careful finishing sessions where panel lines, raised details and compound curves call for more control than water alone can provide. Warning! Not suitable for children under 14 years.

Mark Fit Strong 40ml, decal solvent, brush cap
300087135€4.991 l = €124.75
Mark Fit Strong 40ml is a decal solvent for scale model work where standard decal placement struggles on curved, uneven or matte-painted surfaces. The stronger formula is designed to soften the decal film so markings can settle more closely over raised details, recessed areas and changing contours, giving complex bodywork and shaped panels a cleaner finished look. The application method is built around direct, local control. Solvent is first brushed onto the area where the decal will be positioned, then the decal is slid into place with a wet finger. A soft cloth or cotton swab removes excess water and trapped air bubbles before another coat is brushed over the decal to help it conform to the model surface as it dries. The cap includes the brush applicator, so the bottle is ready for precise placement straight away. This 40 ml bottle suits regular bench use, whether adding small sponsor logos, instrument markings or larger graphics across compound curves. Care is required on painted finishes, as the formula may cause damage in some cases, particularly on surfaces painted with acrylic paints. Flammable and warning hazard pictograms are shown on the safety information. Warning! Not suitable for children under 14 years.

CA Cement Gel Type 3g, model adhesive gel
300087091€4.991 kg = €1,663.33
CA Cement Gel Type 3g is a gel-type cyanoacrylate adhesive made for model-making tasks that call for fast bonding and more controlled application than a runnier glue. The 3 g tube and narrow nozzle suit small parts, tight seams and careful placement on detailed assemblies, where a compact bead of adhesive helps keep work focused and tidy. The gel consistency is useful when bonding contact points that need the adhesive to stay where it is dispensed before the parts are pressed together. This makes the tube a practical choice for repair jobs, detail work and short workshop sessions with limited glue use. The formula is identified as cyanoacrylate, with ethyl-2-cyanoacrylate listed at more than 85% in the safety data. Storage is specified at 2-8 °C, and the adhesive is described there as light- and moisture-sensitive. The same document also states the warning classification for skin irritation, serious eye irritation and respiratory irritation. On the bench, the small tube format is easy to keep alongside cutters, files and sanding tools for quick access during a build. It suits moments when a part needs a rapid join, a loose section needs reattachment, or a narrow edge calls for a carefully placed line of adhesive rather than a wide spread. Warning! Not suitable for children under 14 years.

Paint Remover 250 ml, model paint stripper
300087183€20.491 l = €81.96
This 250 ml Paint Remover is made for stripping paint from already painted models and preparing parts for a fresh finish. The liquid removes Tamiya acrylic, enamel and lacquer-based paints from polystyrene parts, and it can also be used on plated plastic parts when a build calls for the plated layer to come off before repainting. For local correction, the remover can be applied with a cloth or a cotton swab to lift excess colour from small areas. When a whole section needs to be cleared, painted or coated plastic parts can be placed in the liquid for a short soak. Small parts are treated for about 10 minutes, while the immersion time should not exceed 1 hour. After soaking, loosened paint is washed off with a brush, then the parts are rinsed with water and left to dry completely before the next finishing step. The formula is not suitable for ABS plastics. On the workbench, this makes it easier to correct paint runs, clear older finishes from model parts or remove plating before a new colour scheme. It suits repainting jobs, restoration work on previously finished builds and careful surface preparation before the next coat is applied. Warning! Not suitable for children under 14 years.
Model-making adhesive
Multipurpose Cement Clear, model adhesive, 20 g
300087188€12.791 kg = €639.50
Multipurpose Cement Clear is a model adhesive made for clean bonding work on clear and painted parts. The transparent formula helps keep attention on the assembled section rather than on the join itself, which matters on windows, light covers, canopies and other visible details. With 20 g in the tube, the cement fits neatly into regular bench work without taking up much space among knives, files and sanding tools. The tube format supports careful placement during model assembly, especially on smaller contact points where excess adhesive can distract from painted finishes or transparent pieces. Its stated use on clear and painted parts makes it a practical choice when a build combines finished surfaces with sections that still need secure attachment. The white screw cap closes the tube between sessions, and the compact pack is easy to keep alongside other modelling supplies for repeat use on ongoing projects. On the workbench, this cement suits detail-focused tasks such as fitting cockpit glazing, attaching lenses or securing painted trim after the main structure is complete. It also works well as a handy adhesive to keep nearby for touch-ups, repairs and late-stage assembly jobs where a clear bond line is the better visual match. Warning! Not suitable for children under 14 years.

Decal Adhesive 10ml, model adhesive
300087176€6.291 l = €629.00
Decal Adhesive 10ml is a dedicated model adhesive for water-slide decals, made to help markings stay in place on smooth painted surfaces. The compact bottle format suits careful bench work, where small amounts can be applied exactly where a decal needs extra hold. The formula is based on polyvinyl alcohol with water, a combination identified in the supplied data for this adhesive mixture. The 10 ml content fits detail-focused modelling jobs such as insignia, numbering and fine graphic sections without taking up much space in a tool tray. The clear workshop role is straightforward: support decal placement, help the film bond to the surface and keep finishing work controlled on scale builds. The bottle shown in the supplied material uses a tall black cap, which gives a secure grip when opening and closing between short application steps. On the workbench, this adhesive fits naturally into the decal stage after painting, when small graphics need a steadier bond than water alone provides. It suits model makers handling aircraft, cars, armour or other scale subjects that rely on crisp markings to complete the final look. Warning! Not suitable for children under 14 years.

Mark Fit Super Strong 40ml Decal Setting Solution
300087205€5.991 l = €149.75
Mark Fit Super Strong 40ml is a decal setting solution made for demanding marking work on model surfaces where standard applications can struggle. The liquid softens thicker decals so they can settle more closely over uneven areas, rounded sections and matte finishes, helping printed markings sit down with a cleaner painted-on look. The bottle contains 40 ml and uses a brush applicator fixed to the underside of the cap, which keeps application direct and controlled during placement. This Super Strong version sits above the standard Mark Fit and Strong Mark Fit formulas in strength and is intended for especially difficult target surfaces or thicker decal films. The liquid is a clear, transparent solvent mixture with an alcohol odour, and the safety data lists a flash point of 25 °C. Because the stronger formula may damage some decals or affect painted surfaces, it is recommended for advanced users. On a body shell, aircraft fuselage or other shaped model part, the brush can place the solution exactly along edges, recesses and compound curves as the decal settles into place. It suits finishing stages where markings need extra help to conform over detail that would otherwise leave raised edges or trapped air.

CA Cement Micro Nozzles, adhesive accessory, 10-pack
300087212€4.09
These CA Cement Micro Nozzles add a finer application point to adhesive work where small joints and narrow seams need more accuracy than a standard bottle opening can offer. The pack contains 10 nozzles, each with a 2.5 mm connection section for use with compatible Tamiya CA Cement bottles, including Item 87062 and 54511. The very fine tube lets cement travel toward the tip by capillary action. During detailed assembly, that narrow path helps place adhesive exactly where two parts meet instead of flooding the surrounding area. When work pauses, cement hardens at the tip and blocks the opening until the next use, making the nozzle itself part of the dispensing control. This mechanism suits careful bonding on compact model sections where excess adhesive can mark nearby detail. On the bench, the 10-piece pack supports repeated use across multiple builds, repairs or part-fitting sessions. The slim shape is suited to moments that call for short, precise adhesive runs along edges, corners and small contact points. These nozzles are intended specifically for Tamiya CA Cement rather than general liquid transfer, and the 2.5 mm diameter distinguishes them from Item 53580 with its 3.0 mm connection size.
Model-making adhesive
CA Cement Accelerator, adhesive accessory, 10ml
300087138€12.49
This CA Cement Accelerator is a focused workshop aid for faster bonding with CA cement, especially where tiny contact areas leave little room for error. The alcohol-based formula is intended for model assembly and keeps damage to plastic parts to a minimum, which matters when working close to visible surfaces and fine detail. Application follows a clear 2-surface method: place the accelerator on 1 cementing surface and the CA cement on the other, then press both parts together to form a strong bond quickly. That sequence suits photo-etched details, slim attachment points and other delicate joins where a standard curing pace can slow careful work. The bottle carries 10 ml, a practical amount for repeated bench use without taking much space among knives, tweezers and sanding tools. An applicator brush built into the cap helps place the liquid exactly where it is needed, which is useful when fitting narrow metal details or parts with only a very small cementing surface. On a model bench, that controlled application supports cleaner handling during detail assembly, repair work and finishing stages where excess liquid can interfere with alignment. Warning! Not suitable for children under 14 years.

CA Cement & Primer Set, model adhesive, 3g
300087211€13.491 kg = €4,496.67
This CA Cement & Primer set combines a 3 g tube of adhesive with a 3 g primer pen for bonding model parts made from PP, PE, POM and EVA. The quick-drying primer is brushed onto both cementing surfaces a few times, preparing materials that are often difficult to join with standard model cement alone. After the primer has dried, a small amount of CA cement is applied to 1 surface, and the parts are attached soon after for the strongest effect. That sequence gives the set a clear working method rather than a trial-and-error approach, which is especially useful on tracks, structural parts and other low-adhesion components. The primer is intended only for PP, PE, POM and EVA parts, and it is not needed for materials that can be attached only with CA cement. The set can be used on Mini 4WD series parts, Educational Construction series components, Military Miniature tracks and other difficult-to-cement model materials. On the workbench, it supports repair jobs, replacement parts and precise assembly steps where a fast bond and the right surface preparation matter.

Polycarbonate Body Reinforcing Cement, RC adhesive
300087190€18.291 kg = €182.90
This reinforcing cement is made for R/C model polycarbonate bodies and focuses on one clear task: adding support where a bodyshell needs repair or extra backing. The 100 ml tube and included plastic spreader create a straightforward setup for applying cement across inner surfaces, seams or damaged sections inside a shell. The formula is intended for polycarbonate, the material widely used for lightweight R/C bodyshells that flex during running and handling. Spread onto the inside of the shell, the cement can be worked over stress points, crack lines or worn areas where reinforcement is needed. The flat spreader helps guide the material into a broader layer instead of a narrow bead, which is useful when covering a larger patch zone or building support around a split. This makes the cement a practical workshop supply for maintenance between running sessions or during a body refresh. On the bench, it fits naturally alongside routine bodyshell care such as checking impact points, strengthening corners and restoring areas that have taken repeated flex. For hobby use centered on keeping a favourite shell in service, this cement supports clean repair work on polycarbonate R/C bodies with a tool included for direct application. Warning! Not suitable for children under 14 years.

Tamiya Cement Low Odor is a model adhesive in a square 40 ml bottle, made for plastic model assembly and suited to styrene plastic. The water-based formula pairs focused material compatibility with a lower-odor handling profile, while the brush built into the lid keeps the applicator ready as soon as the bottle is opened. The square bottle shape sits neatly on a work surface and is easy to position beside parts, cutters and sanding tools during a build. Because the brush is stored in the cap, adhesive can be lifted and placed directly onto seams, edges and small contact areas without reaching for a separate tool. That setup helps when aligning body panels, interior sections or other styrene components that need careful placement before joining. The 40 ml volume also suits repeated use across multiple assembly stages instead of a single quick repair. On the bench, this adhesive fits the steady rhythm of model construction, whether attaching small detail parts or working along longer joins on larger sections. It suits builders who want a dedicated cement for styrene kits and a bottle format that keeps application simple, tidy and close at hand throughout the build. Warning! Not suitable for children under 14 years.

The square glass bottle and ribbed blue screw cap give the cement a compact bench presence that is easy to place, open and close during focused build sessions. The label identifies the cement specifically for ABS, which matters when a build combines different materials and the adhesive choice needs to match the part being joined. The safety data names it as a solvent-based mixture and lists acetone at under 60%, with a solvent content of 85%, a density of 0.9 g/ml at 20 °C and a flash point of -18 °C. Hazard pictograms on the label mark the cement as flammable and as an irritant warning, so handling and storage belong in a well-prepared hobby workspace. The bottle format keeps the quantity contained in one dedicated container rather than loose transfer into separate pots. On the bench, this cement fits the moments when ABS housings, structural sections or detail parts need a material-specific bond during a build or a repair. It also suits restocking a model toolkit for repeat assembly tasks, where a clearly marked 40 ml bottle can stay alongside cutters, files and other workshop essentials between projects. Warning! Not suitable for children under 14 years.

CA Cement Quick Type 2g, instant adhesive
300087062soon available again
CA Cement Quick Type 2g is an instant adhesive for model-making work that combines fast bonding with a compact applicator format. The light gray body, yellow-orange push button and narrow front tip create a clear handling setup for placing adhesive on small joins, edges and detail parts where a broad glue spread would get in the way. The 2 g fill suits short, precise bonding tasks rather than large-area application. A removable cap covers the tip between uses, and 2 tapered nozzle tips add a finer application option for narrow contact points. The adhesive is a cyanoacrylate formula, identified in the safety data as containing ethyl-2-cyanoacrylate at more than 75%. The mixture is liquid and colorless, with a density of 1.0 +/- 0.1 g/ml at 20 °C. This makes it suited to careful placement during assembly, repair or detail fitting in hobby builds. On the workbench, the push-button format helps keep attention on the join itself, whether attaching a small part, fixing a clean break or securing a detail piece in place. The compact applicator and fine tips fit neatly into model-building sessions where controlled adhesive placement matters as much as bond speed. Warning! Not suitable for children under 14 years.

The importance of model making adhesives
Choosing the right adhesive is crucial for the success of your projects. Whether you're joining delicate parts or large components, the choice of glue determines the stability and durability of your models. Our range includes various model making adhesives tailored to different materials and requirements, ensuring that every bond is secure.
Different types of model making adhesives
In the following sections, we’ll introduce you to some different types of adhesives for model making:
Superglue for quick bonds
Superglue is ideal when you need a fast bond. Our Tamiya Superglue Gel dries instantly and provides a strong connection that can be immediately handled. It is particularly suitable for small parts that need to be fixed quickly and precisely. However, make sure to apply the superglue sparingly and accurately, as it hardens instantly.
Plastic glue for plastic models
For plastic models, plastic glue is the best choice. This model making adhesive slightly dissolves the material, chemically bonding the pieces together. This creates a strong connection, particularly well-suited for building polystyrene models. Plastic glue also ensures a clean finish with no visible glue marks. Why not try Tamiya Plastic Glue in 20ml or 40ml sizes, complete with an ultra-thin brush for precise application?
Special adhesive for delicate work
For especially fine and intricate models, a special adhesive is the perfect solution. Its extra-thin consistency allows even the smallest parts to be bonded with precision. This model making glue penetrates deep into cracks and gaps and leaves no visible glue marks: ideal for challenging projects where the highest level of precision is required. Try the extra-thin plastic glue with a lemon scent, putting an end to strong glue odours once and for all.
Application tips for perfect gluing results
For clean and stable bonds, it is important to apply model making glue correctly. Make sure to thoroughly clean and dry the surfaces beforehand. For very small parts, it’s advisable to use adhesives with a fine applicator tip to achieve precise results. Avoid applying too much glue, as this can leave unsightly glue marks, and remember to close the glue promptly after use.
