Adam Savage Uses BSI CAs for Prop Building and Model Making!

. . . but of course he does! As the most popular CA (Cyanoacrylate) in the hobby world, you've got to have BSI's Insta-Cure and the renowned accelerator, Insta-set in your tool box too. 

Adam mentions several times that he is yet to try a flexible CA. What Adam may not realize is that BSI also has several time-tested flexible CAs called, Insta-Flex, Insta-Flex+, and IC2000. These are all really important CA's for prop building and model making where shock resistance is a necessity. Adam also refers to our Insta-Set as the "Zip-Kicker," which he claims to love the smell of! Insta-Set speeds up the cure time exponentially. Super cool when you've got lots of gluing to do.

And for those "oops" moments BSI also makes Un-Cure — for when your fingers accidentally get glued together. As Adam mentions – it's just part of using CAs.

So, time to check out all these great products, and more from BSI!!

With CA hinges I'm very picky about CA. Get a fresh bottle of glue. This can make a huge difference. I like the small capillary tips for hinges they make a huge difference in applying the CA in the right spot with just the right sized drops. It’s very important to have fresh glue. As it ages it will start to thicken and will take longer to soak into the hinges. So a fresh bottle of glue is important. I actually buy a fresh small bottle just to hinge with. I tried the new INSTA-Flex CA and its great for CA hinging. This glue was specially formulated for CA hinges as it is rubber toughened to keep from getting brittle.
