The Army Painter — Super Glue (Cyanoacrylate, 20ml)

The essential super glue for resin and metal miniatures. The Army Painter Super Glue is a medium-thickness cyanoacrylate (CA) adhesive with a precision tip — designed for miniatures, small parts, basing, and any hobby task where a plastic cement won't do. Creates strong, fast-curing bonds on resin, metal, plastic, and mixed materials.

Why cyanoacrylate matters for miniatures

Plastic glue (like Army Painter Plastic Glue GL2015) chemically welds polystyrene miniatures together — but it doesn't work on resin, metal, or 3D-printed materials. Super Glue is the answer for those: it forms a mechanical bond that holds any surface, even the tricky dissimilar materials you find in mixed kits.

Key features

• Cyanoacrylate (CA) formula — fast-curing, ultra-strong bonds
• Precision tip — dispense the exact amount, exactly where you need it
• Medium thickness — flows into gaps without running everywhere
• 20ml / 26g — lasts for hundreds of models
• Works on resin, metal, plastic, mixed materials — the versatile glue every hobbyist needs
• Bonds dissimilar materials — e.g. resin heads on plastic bodies

Perfect for

• Resin miniature assembly — Forge World, Trench Crusade, Warcry warbands, boutique 3D print resin
• Metal miniatures — vintage GW, Blood Bowl teams, character models
• Mixed material kits — attaching resin bits to plastic models
• Basing — securing textured basing material, tufts, rocks, cork
• 3D-printed parts — resin prints from Anycubic, Elegoo, Formlabs
• Terrain — rocks, foam, small details on plastic terrain
• Any hobby repair — broken swords, snapped bases, fallen tufts

How to use

1. Clean the surfaces to be joined (mould release residue kills glue bonds)
2. Apply a small drop of Super Glue to one surface using the precision tip
3. Press the parts together and hold for 15-30 seconds
4. Full cure in ~2 minutes
5. For maximum strength, use with a CA accelerator (kicker) or dust of baking soda for instant cure
