Title: Flexible strong glue
Post by: sihinch on July 19, 2012, 09:54:38 AM
I want to use some flexible strong glue to join 2 pieces of EPO foam.

I am gluing ducted fan nacelles, so I was hoping for something that would absorb some vibration, but would be strong.  I may need to cut through the joint at a later date.

I think Ed McMann favours "Household Goop" - would this be suitable, Ed? 

Any other alternatives?

Thanks!

Simon... don't glue it... I have a B***** of a time taking them off to fix the broken fan.  Use two sided tape that you get from a craft store that is supper thin... it will hold fine and you can pull it apart later if you  need to repair it.  if you use glue you will have to rip or cut it apart!

Canopy glue works well, is flexible and Greg can cut it with a knife when he has to repair it.

UHU glue is also good. Brutal to work with though--it's super stringy.
