Citadel thin vs thick glue

[Rex2490]

Is there a significant difference in the actual glue? or is it just the nozzle? I was told it was just the nozzle but i want to make sure.

Seconded. Loctite Gel Control is great stuff. Best super glue I've ever used.

Cheaper too

The thin is the consistency of thinned GW paint. The thick is a gel.

Note there's a difference between superglue and plastic glue.

I use the thin building just about everything, and for smoothing fingerprints out of green stuff. Thick is really for heavy duty tasks, like basing, large models with load bearing parts, etc.

Have a look down your local DIY store, my store sells small tubes of gel glue for £1.20 and I picked up a double set of thin glues at ASDA (wallmart I think in the US) for £1. 

I find the the small glues ideal if you have a small project to build or a set of conversions to make the glue goes just about far enough and I don't have to worry about the nozzle drying up etc.

For larger kits I use a combination of pins and a glue catalyst (zip kicker), however the catalyst is evil stuff. It's very smelly, realy not good for you or pregnant ladies and due to this its not sold in California. But used outside with precautions it's sticks stuff instantly.

I don't think much of GW glue, hobby materials are cheaper elsewhere.

Do you have a more specific name on the one you use? Or is it just called Gel Control? I checked Loctite`s homepage, but they have like a dozen different kinds of super glue
