Frequently asked questions: What is the best glue for custom action figures?

 HKC here with another round of frequently asked questions. This time is about the glue/bonding agents used in customs, and the answer is Loctite Superglue professional. There are several kinds of them but professional is the on that has worked for me during all these years.

There is also the gel variety, the ones that come with a brush, but they tend to get messy and clogged with use, so I have always stuck to Loctite professional. 

There are however, safety precautions that have to be taken in consideration since cyanoacrylate (Superglue's real name) when used in large dabs or amounts release invisible vapors that are harmful to the eyes. EXTREME care is required when handling large amounts of superglue. We recommend using plastic goggles which block the vapors.


There are of course, many other superglues available such as Zap a Gap, Gorilla glue and others (Stay away from Krazy glue. It's useless and messy) but I won't confuse you with their uses since they are mostly the same. Do you have any glue you recommend? Let us know!
