Is Ambroid any good?
Posted by echolmberg on Monday, April 20, 2009 6:00 PM

Hi guys!

I was in my local train hobby shop a few hours ago because I needed some glue (I'm an aircraft modeler myself).  Has anyone ever used FAS'N ALL by Ambroid?  Is that a good glue for bonding plastic kits?  Is it similar to the Testors tube glue?

Thanks!

Sign - Ditto [#ditto] But I've always heard of Ambroid so I thought maybe it would work.  It's just that when I got home I thought I'd post the question here before I opened up the tube and committed myself to the $3.29 it cost me.  Not that it's all that much but I can get a bottle or two of paint at that price.  It's not much but why waste the $$$, right?

i use ambroid for everything i do plastic wise. i think its the best stuff out there. you can use multiple layers and still its paper thin!!! i use it on my figures...never need to fill gaps nothing. if you want a good opinion...you'll never go back to anything else as far as im concerned!!! Thumbs Up [tup]

as far as "wasting money"...it'll last you a long time and many many projects if you keep it closed tight. no...i think you'd be wrong not to spend the $$$ on it!! up 2 u though.
