"SPAD" Simple Plastic Aircraft Design
Tried heat gun instead of the gas flame to flash the corflute .... gave more control ....and then wiped it over with methylated spirits to help change the surface structure and remove any oils left over from manufacture of the corflute.... then smoothed some cheap contact cement (PARFIX) over both surfaces waited a while and pressed them together by hand only, and it appears to be a success. I noticed some people use WINDEX ...to wipe down after flashing... so could be even better.... and perhaps a more expensive brand of contact cement may do an even better job. PS. APOLOGIES.....I posted. this discussion in the GENERAL ANNOUNCEMENTS inadvertently. Best to keep the SPADS in this forum.
MAKING MODELS IS MEDICINE FOR THE MIND  Smile
