Beacon Foam-Tac Powerful Glue - Fast-Drying, Waterproof, Ideal for Foam, Plastics, Balsa Wood, and Carbon Fiber - Perfect for RC Builders, 2-Ounce

I build and repair flying rc airplanes. Most of the adhesives I've used are CA instant glues for quick spot repairs and Gorilla glue for high strength applications. CA isn't really flexible and Gorilla takes longer to harden for some repairs. So, I was looking for an adhesive with some flexibility and a shorter curing time. I purchased Foam Tac after reading some reviews that liked the pliability and strength. It applies like a contact cement. Basically you apply it to both objects to be joined. I like the way it gives you a few minutes to position and move the parts to fit before pressing or clamping your work into place. However, if you wait too long before joining your parts, you will not be able to reposition it after joining. I've used it on various materials and it works well. I do recommend reading the instructions for best results. This was a good choice for my projects and I am pleased with the results I get.

I have used other foam glue on my RC foam planes before and most work the same it's a high tack glue. This stuff dries faster seems stronger. The only drawback I can see is can be messy. What I mean is when you put a small dab from the bottle on something then pull the bottle away a long string of the stuff stays attached. Since this stuff dries fast if you let that string lay down on the outside of your foam plane it will get stuck fast. The more you rub the sticker it gets the only choice is to let it dry and try to break it lose but that removes any paint you have. What I do is grab the string with other hand between 2 fingers and lift the string and the bottle away from the model. You can also put towels over the body of the airplane to protect it from getting on the outside. I was lucky enough to only get a tiny bit on my canopy I can pick it off later. If you buy a ARF use this glue instead it's way stronger then the stuff they send with the ARF. I haven't used it before but for crash repair this looks like could be really good stuff for that. I found other foam glue to not really do a good job with crash repairing. Once this dries it's stronger then the foam which was there before.

This stuff saved a Cambro-style cooler from the dump. When the cooler cracked, we thought we were cooked. This was the right glue to penetrate the cracks well and cleanly, and flexible enough to hold up against the natural flexing we put the cooler through.

Almost dries too fast for my needs. Be sure to get it where you need it quickly and keep appropriate pressure applied on foam without movement. Less is more. Best to follow directions on package. Good value though. Cured bond is strong although a little messy looking.

Works great on my foam rc planes

In my opinion the best way to repair foam RC plans.

This is one of the best foam glues out there. I use it all the time for repairs and foam construction. Be careful using it near the edge of material as it is slightly rubbery and doesn’t sand well if it bleeds out from a joint.

Great product and fast shipping. Was exactly as described. Packaging was great.

great glue Thanks

if you build aircraft from foam board or depron or even balsa this glue is the best, its superb stuff, pricey i must admit but if you want the best glue to build or repair your aircraft instead of cyano or hot glue (not flexible enough) then get this. you can even use this stuff for control surface hinges without the need for reinforcement tape the foam-tac IS the hinge. its also superb on carbon fiber rod for reinforcing wing and fuselage so what more can i say only that it bonds quickly with initial strong set at 20 minutes and full strength at 24 hours. plenty of video's on you tube showing how great this is. oh and it can also be used to 'waterproof' foam board ( the paper covered foam) by spreading a very thin layer over all surfaces. SUPERB STUFF HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Brilliant for gluing foam model aircraft and components to them such as servos, Also good for glass and metal. It provides a strong but flexible joint..

Comme anticipé .OK.

Excellent adhesive product for E P O foam and other materials. Used for R/C foam aircraft repairs.
