How do I glue a resin kit?
Resin is a type of plastic, but conventional plastic glues don't work.
For smaller resin parts super glue is ideal, for slightly larger parts an epoxy glue is recommended.
For large parts a two-part epoxy glue to give the model extra strength.
Again, with all glues try to keep away from the skin, wash with warm soapy water immediately if you should make contact with the skin.
Always follow the manufacturers guidelines and most importantly read them before starting your project as it is very difficult to hold and read something with your fingers stuck together.
