Must Have for miniatures
This is the must-have glue for model building and kitbashing miniatures. It sticks to just about every substrate, and with plastics it actually slightly dissolves the two surfaces you are joining, forming a very strong bond, but unlike superglue, it doesn’t set instantly, allowing you time to position it exactly like you want it, and also remove any glue that squeezes out of the join. The long, thin nozzle allows you to get a precise amount of glue into hard-to-reach areas, and there is a needle-like wire inside that prevents any glue blocking up and drying in the tube. The shape of the bottle also prevents it from rolling away and making a mess which is quite clever, and very handy.

I buy this glue for building warhammer minitures and it is the best glue that i have used to stick the plastic together. There are two things what i dont like about the glue but thats more in the design of the bottle and needle rather than the actual glue. the needle gets stuck in the blue lid a lot and you have to use tweezers to pull it out again and also that the needle clugs up but heating it with a flame does unclog it.

Excellent plastic model glue
This adhesive is ideal for model makers working with plastic. The adhesive is very thin so does not leave that sticky mess found with other glues. It has a needle thin applicator to allow very precise targeting of where to apply the glue. The design of the bottle means you do not have to squeeze which gives much more control and avoids ruining models due to applying too much glue.

Good overall performance.
I have been modelling for a number of years and this product by Revell is excellent.
The needle offers accurate glue placement on small or intricate parts, it does have a tendency to block..but I solve this with a quick poke with some thin wire.
It's long lasting too, I've had breaks from modelling that have lasted years, and when retrieved from the toolbox the glue is always ready to go.

Super easy to use
Unlike old school model making glue, this allows you to micro control the amount dispensed. Brilliant.
If it does get blocked, it's easily undone, by warming up the needle nozzle.
Good value too!

Great modelling glue
Great for plastic models. I'm using them for warhammer 40k personally. But it would work well for other plastic models.

Great glue for 40K miniatures
Good glue, only issue is the nozzle gets blocked pretty regularly, perhaps something to unblock it, a rod perhaps?

Revell not the best
Went to use the Glue and the tube wouldn’t work because it was sealed at the end,tried to trim off the tube ( blockage ) and ended up with a tube that wasn’t a tube because it only had a hole one end,luckily I had a old syringe and needle so I used that in place of the tube supplied ( the needle actually worked better as it has a angled tip 🤷♂️).
