## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this work on a plastic glasses frame ?**
A: No. This glue works by melting the mating surfaces of polystyrene (soft) plastics. The plastic of glasses frames is much harder and denser and will not melt under Tamiya cement. I would recommend low viscosity cyanoacrylate (super glue).

**Q: will this glue bond small painted parts well on a pvc model?**
A: No, it can only glue together plastic model kits that use polystyrene plastic.

**Q: Does this work on perspex?**
A: It’s for polystyrene- it melts the plastic.  Perspex is not polystyrene- best to use a super glue.

**Q: I am using this product for the first time always used revel contacta  is it only good for large parts or can be used for small delicate parts**
A: Use for ALL parts with confidence. Like you, I used to use 'contacta' too. Tamiya Extra-Thin is so much superior in every way. It actually 'welds' the seperate parts together by melting a micro-thin film of plastic on the two pieces in contact (rather than having a layer of glue BETWEEN them which simply sets hard-'ish!). It is much less messy and (being thin) has the fantastic capability to 'run' along joint/panel lines etc by capiliary action. The final joints made with this stuff are far, far firmer than your normal glues. Don't hesitate to use this stuff - you'll never go back to using the old stuff!
