Post by: olly4950 on June 10, 2018, 08:35:38 pm

Hi to All,I'm making the 1/10 scale Griffon TD2000 and at a stage where I need to stick the skirt on, I've tried using the double sided tape from Scewfix - useless.Anyone used anything else?Regardsolly4950

A contact adhesive like Evostick? Does it have to be easily removable?

If it doesn't need to come off again ever then Tigerseal would be my product of choice.
If you might need to remove it though I'd recommend this:

Won't come off under normal use but you'd be able to get a razor behind it and get it off if needed.
