While Citadel glue is great for general assembly it can sometimes be a bit gloopy and hard to control. This Tamiya cement however is a fantastic alternative that takes your builds to the next level. The 40ml square bottle is incredibly stable on the desk and the fine applicator brush built into the cap makes those bulky plastic nozzles feel like a thing of the past. The real magic here is the ultra low viscosity and capillary action. Instead of applying a bead of glue and hoping it stays put you can dry fit your parts together first then touch the brush to the seam and watch as the glue instantly sucks into the joint. It works by slightly melting the plastic to create a welded bond that is incredibly strong. Because it is so thin it evaporates quickly which significantly reduces the risk of accidental fingerprints or messy overflow that can ruin fine detail. The final result is a much cleaner build with far less cleanup or sanding required. It is perfect for everything from delicate infantry models to large scale vehicles where you want seamless joins. For any hobbyist who wants professional results without the mess of thicker adhesives this is an essential upgrade for your workbench. It is a hobby staple that truly lives up to the hype. Review: The Only Thing Holding My Life Together - I bought this to glue plastic models together, but at this point I’m convinced it could repair broken dreams too. The stuff is brilliant. Touch the brush to the seam and it magically disappears into the joint like it’s got a degree in engineering. No mess, no giant blobs of glue, just clean joins that make me look far more skilled than I actually am. Be warned though—this glue works so well you’ll spend more time admiring your perfectly glued model than actually finishing it. Five stars. The only thing it hasn’t managed to stick together is my willpower to stop buying more model kits. ## Features - Warning:Only for domestic use - Warning:To be used under the direct supervision of an adult - Warning:Toy inside.

The plastic of glasses frames is much harder and denser and will not melt under Tamiya cement. I would recommend low viscosity cyanoacrylate (super glue). **Q: will this glue bond small painted parts well on a pvc model?** A: No, it can only glue together plastic model kits that use polystyrene plastic. **Q: Does this work on perspex?** A: It’s for polystyrene- it melts the plastic. Perspex is not polystyrene- best to use a super glue. **Q: I am using this product for the first time always used revel contacta is it only good for large parts or can be used for small delicate parts** A: Use for ALL parts with confidence. Like you, I used to use 'contacta' too. Tamiya Extra-Thin is so much superior in every way. It actually 'welds' the seperate parts together by melting a micro-thin film of plastic on the two pieces in contact (rather than having a layer of glue BETWEEN them which simply sets hard-'ish!). It is much less messy and (being thin) has the fantastic capability to 'run' along joint/panel lines etc by capiliary action. The final joints made with this stuff are far, far firmer than your normal glues. Don't hesitate to use this stuff - you'll never go back to using the old stuff! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Gold Standard and a Fantastic Step Up From Citadel *by K***Y on 4 February 2026* If you have been using Citadel plastic glue and are looking for something that offers more control and a cleaner finish then Tamiya Extra Thin is a total game changer.

The adhesion is excellent, and the built-in brush applicator makes application precise and easy. I find this far better than Citadel's alternative. Would highly recommend for anyone building Warhammer or other plastic miniatures. Great value for money. ## Frequently Bought Together - Tamiya 87038 Extra Thin Cement Glue Fine Tip 40ml - BXQINLENX Professional 8 PCS Model Tools Kit Modeler Basic Tools Craft Set Hobby Building Tools Kit for Gundam Car Model Building Repairing and Fixing(A) - anezus Self Healing Sewing Mat, 12inch x 18inch Rotary Cutting Mat Double Sided 5-Ply Craft Cutting Board for Sewing Crafts Hobby Fabric Precision Scrapbooking Project --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co/products/51327294-extra-thin-liquid-cement-glue-with-applicator-brush-40ml-bottle](https://www.desertcart.co/products/51327294-extra-thin-liquid-cement-glue-with-applicator-brush-40ml-bottle) --- *Product available on Desertcart Colombia* *Store origin: CO* *Last updated: 2026-08-07*
