  • Alternatives to Gorilla Glue for foam?

    Hi all,
    Can anyone recommend a UK source for alternatives to white Gorilla Glue for fixing foam planes?
    White gorilla glue is not available in the UK and I need to get some to reinforce the landing gear of my Sukhoi SU29.

    I need something like gorilla glue where it expands.

    Thanks

        I tried some of this a while ago, it was only for my sons little throw around foamy that gets battered a lot, but the glue was good, perhaps worth a go to read up about it.

          SHOE-GOO, really good, I use it for everything even to reinforce 1/8 and 1/5 buggy bodyshells and heli canopy's.

            I've read mixing normal Gorilla with micro-balloons lightens it but is this the stuff you're after

              Hippo Glue is supposed to be the same, its very strong, very good.
